Title: Pinyon Mountain
Post by: Celt on May 15, 2016, 05:44:20 PM
  Anyone interested in running Pinyon Mtn with me Saturday 21st? on a quick day trip. It's about 1.40 minutes drive from San Diego near Box Canyon in Earthquake Valley by Butterfield just past Scissors Crossing. I put a couple YouTube links below to let you know what it's going to be like. I'll be glad to spot anyone through the squeeze or Heart Attack Hill, but cannot be responsible if you get some trail modifications. Sooooo, how about it? Green Goon, Riz and the rest of you usual suspects....?...?

    Don't blame me for the dorky YouTube music and comments but they show the three biggest obstacles on the trail.

Looks like a fun trail with some body damage possible through the Squeeze.  My parents are flying in tomorrow so I'll be busy this weekend otherwise I will be down to go.

Looks really fun. The squeeze looks like it'd be nice for a narrow Gen 1. We're replacing some gaskets on the Goon right now and I don't think we'll have her done by this weekend.

It's too bad you guys can't go. I'm trying to get down there before it gets too darn hot. I think the 1st gens can get through easily enough.
