Sounds like they work about as well as the TJ hood vents I have on there right now. hahaha
 






I talked with my surgeon yesterday and told him to schedule my surgeys after November 10th. So I should be good to go for Truckhaven. :thumbsup:
 


















I think that's me being pulled backwards
 






It rained 1/2" in Octotilla Wells yesterday.
 












NO AND THEN! :laugh:
 


















There's a good flyover vid on the Coachella Valley page on FB/Instagram of the Box Canyon washout.
I was in Pioneertown Friday night and it was getting pretty bad up there. Roads turned into rivers...it was a little scary getting back home to the low desert.

Yesterday they had to close the Arizona State Fair for the first time.
 








Looks like I will be taking the long way to Truck Haven. The amount of material they have to remove to reclaim the road is just unimaginable.
 






It rained fairly hard most of the night Friday, but nothing since. Maybe it cleared out and notched the ditches for us.

Camping locations:

We have two excellent places to camp at Truckhaven. The mesa to the north of Marina Rd and above the Truckhaven Arches is my preferred spot, but I know a few people don't like it. Its an interesting drive up to the top of the mesa but if I can do it, everyone else can. It has a much nicer view and less vehicle traffic.

The other spot is off the end of Marina Rd. I will be out there on Wednesday afternoon, so I can stake our claim to any spot we want. I am good either way. Its possible a bunch of other groups are camping at Truckhaven that weekend.

Is @zukman coming?

Zukman was planning to come. If they got that much rain out there who knows what it looks like out there now.
