Immediately following our next general meeting, March 19, I will put on a GAIA gps class. We really need ride leaders and it is easy to do when you are able to follow your gps. I get asked all the time how I know about these trails. Where I have accumulated tracks over the years and many other people have tracks and once you have them on your phone or tablet you just follow the line. You don’t have to create the tracks but it is easy to add to them. That is really all there is to it. So, immediately after our next meetingRead More →

We have some interest which means that this event is a GO. If interested please register in the “Events” calendar and not by commenting to this post. I still need someone with an RV to take the lead in finding a place to camp. If you plan to stay in a motel, lodging is very limited and you need to make reservations now. Oatman Hotel, Restuarant, and Bar is NOT a motel. Airbnb and VRBO both have the same place listed, https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1198615631663654953?adults=1&search_mode=regular_search&check_in=2025-04-21&check_out=2025-04-24&source_impression_id=p3_1738687060_P3DXyH-t8bbAHbFR&previous_page_section_name=1000&federated_search_id=01e63fa9-3ecf-4c8b-812c-1bcd6f24d589. There is only one place. I have a reservation at the General Store, 928-768-9448. They only have 2 cabins (and I have one).Read More →

It cost a little up front but I think you may enjoy this jamboree. You can read more about it in the Standard-Examiner newspaper, https://www.standard.net/lifestyle/2025/jan/23/the-sixth-annual-red-rock-jamboree-spring-in-kanab/. If interested see more in the Club’s Event Calendar for the month of May. You will need to register soon or it will be full. Keith MenascoRead More →

For Premium Users, GAIA has several map layers. What I discovered for Forest Service Lands there is a map layer called “USFS Roads and Trails” which has the trails in white. If you overlay this with one of the Satellite layers (I use “Satellite with Lables”) which is green, all of the trails show up in stark contrast. If you zoom in and out you can even see road numbers. This is supposed to be the roads on the Forest’s Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM). When you have the layer selected you can click on it to see the map legend. Hope this helps. KeithRead More →

I wanted to thank Tony Carcoba for putting on a successful event January 2 – 5 down by Florence that taught members how to safely do Rock Crawling. Tony shared some pictures with me, one of which is the beginning slide to our website. All six photographs can be seen at, https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19XrHxZhou1SEqGUOd5x9wWZHASgXur6s?usp=drive_link.
