Red Canyon Jeep Trail Run
Red Canyon Jeep trail is a fun double track that then drops into a graded road, the Bradshaw Trail. We will see the old trestle bridge and time permitting the slot canyon nearby. We'll proceed to drive the Bradshaw trail and find a nice place for lunch. Time permitting we'll stop at the Off-Road obstacles park for a bit, then head out to Blythe, air-up, have dinner and head home.
COMS:
Primary: GMRS CH. 3 (traffic permitting)
Secondary: CB CHannel 16 (traffic permitting)
PLANS:
9am-9:30am - Meet at General Patton Musem. If you get there early fuel up.
9:30 am - Roll out to the trailhead. There we will air down, from what I hear even Bradshaw trail is a bit rough so this will help.
10am - Begin Red Canyon Jeep Trail and the rest of our day.
12-ish We'll stop for lunch, eat what you brung.
1- ish continue on. Rest of the day is pushing forward on Bradshaw trail, should take a few hours with some stop.

What you need:
- Comms: HAM Radio simplex (Prefered), remember you don't need a license to listen but you will need one to speak, listening will at least help you navigate with the group. I HIGHLY recommend you get a radio and a license if you plan to do runs. Please know how to program a frequency when you arrive at the run. We'll determine back up. Possibly CB.
- Be self-sufficient: bring plenty of water, a lunch, and snacks for the day.
- Extra fuel should not be needed, we will traveling less than 100 miles between fuel points.
