I'm headed out to Panamint Valley for 3 days the last weekend of March with a few friends and wanted to put out an open invite to the Raptor community. Were going to head out there on Thursday night to secure the campsite for the weekend. These runs will be a mix of different terrain; everything from high speed to slight crawling.
We will base camp at an abandoned mining camp with an old cabin. For those that need running water, Panamint Springs Resort is located a nearby with an RV / tent lot, and if you are lucky, might have some rooms available.
Camp Site:
The schedule so far is:
Friday - Darwin Loop - 16 mi off pavement
Stops at:
Darwin Falls
China Garden
Abandoned Mine
City of Darwin
Maybe one more run after depending on time.
Saturday - Death Valley / Saline Valley - 80 mi off pavement
Stops at:
Ubehebe Crater
Teakettle Junction
Racetrack
Lippincott Mine
Lost Burro Mine
Hunter Mountains
Sunday we usually just pack up and shoot. The camp is on BLM land so shooting is allowed.
______________________________________________________
We will do a quick run on Friday morning either to Jail Canyon or up to Lookout City to allow time for people to show up. Probably head to Darwin around 1pm. Cell coverage is non existent in Panamint so HAM will be the only form of communication.
