I'm gonna go tool around Table Mesa next weekend. Not really to wheel. More to explore. If anyone wants to come along I would appriciate the company. Lemme know.

Also if anyone has GPS coords they're willing to share. That would be cool too.

What time you going out? I was drawn for javalina in that unit and need to do some scouting. Anyone been out that way and come across the little piggies let me know. And yes, I know they're not pigs. :)

You talking about tomorrow or next Sat/Sun (17th/18th)? I'm close to TM so am interested in checking the area out more. I ran out there for the first time last weekend so not real familar with the area but I can probably find Terminator again... I'm free both weekends at the moment so can meet you out there if we can work something out.

We can do a few easy trails and then we can go from there and see how crazy we want to get.

Anyone else up for going? Would be a good chance to show alot of you trials and start the get to know TM thing going.

I am going to try to make this also. I believe there is a place where most leave their trailers and tow vehicles on the left side of the road. I would think we would meet there at 9am.

The air down meet up spot is about a 1/4 mile west of the 17 off the Table Mesa exit. I want to try and get the show on the road by 9:30a. Hope to see you guys there.

Exit I-17 at Table Mesa RD. Go west to acess road on west side of I-17 then go north along I-17. 1/4 mile on west side there is a open area were we meet and air down. I will get there around 8:45 so you can all look for my Green XJ see below.

Good time today, wish I could have stuck around longer to try another trail. Ran Lower Terminator. I'll be posting up more runs for TM as soon as I get comfortable with more trails. Hopefully those with cameras will post up some pics.

Thanks for leading Lower Terminator, that was fun, Pam and I continued thru Upper Terminator with no problems and then did Raw Deal to finish off the day. It was nice meeting all that came, a fun group to wheel with like always. Sorry, I dont have any pictures, maybe it didnt really happen then.:dunno:

I look forward to some more challenging trails out there. Let me know when you are ready Gasman.

How'd the move go ??

Good, just a long process. Selling a house, buying a new one, moving into temp apartment until new house is done, moving into the new house, etc. Took 6 months. But it's all good now. I'm in and finally got settled to where I can wheel again. I'll miss FJ, but it's cool being this close to TM. Will miss having DesertFab so close too! Hopefully see you at Rockfest.

Nice! Glad your all settled in.. just an FYI. I left DesertFab months ago.. If all goes as planned you will see me at RockFest !
