Coast to Crawl: South Carolina to Rubicon Trail and back

[WestwallNF104A]

Day 7 stopped by the Expedition Super Store for a tour and then to Salt Lake City Airport to grab family. Visited the Bonneville Salt Flats. Heading towards Winnemucca for the night.

I love Bonneville! I was able to join the 200mph club thanks to a friend who owned a GT40 and trusted me to drive it!

Unreal experience.

Landscape in Nevada is scenic and the rain is visible miles away.

Smiths shopping center off South Meadows or Costco off Plumb exit. Fill up before you leave Carson cheaper fuel than in Reno. There's also a Costco in Carson right by hwy 50 over to SLT.

- Red Rock 4-Wheelers, Inc. Fins N Things -

This is the Red rock Wheelers link to the Fins N' Things trail. The page shows the rating, includes a description, and has a map (google) at the bottom of the page. The Map is full featured which means you can zoom in for a close look and also drag the little google man over to any spot along the trail for a photographic look at the conditions. The standard disclaimer, i.e., "much steeper than it appears" applies here.

This photo marks the 2 spots that Rubcht shared in photos in earlier post.

I was at EJS and I can tell you that U Tube makes everything look like a 3-4 when it's a 8-9. I go there for the beauty of Onion Creek type rides. I have a heart attack on the shelf roads.

There is also the Fordyce trail. Not that far from the Rubicon.

Day 11… clean and access… Two OEM rear bumpers took hits versus the Next Venture Motorsports, if only they made a skid for taillights
