I would love to but I have to get some airplanes ready for the Miramar Airshow this weekend and then I'll actually be working the airshow the following weekend. THat Gorgonio trip is over 20 miles round trip with about a 6000 foot elevation gain. That's a hell of a haul. Let us know how it goes.gon2srf wrote:BTW Ollie. I plan on hiking to Modjeska and Santiago peaks (Saddleback) this Saturday and hitting Mt. San Gorgonio via the Momyer Trailhead on Sept 3 and/or 4th depending on weather. Let me know if you are interested and have time for either?
What planes? Miramar is just cool, period!OLLIE wrote:I would love to but I have to get some airplanes ready for the Miramar Airshow this weekend and then I'll actually be working the airshow the following weekend.

I am a volunteer at the Marine Corps Aviation Museum at Miramar. I help them restore the planes and keep the current display planes in shape. This weekend we're prepping for the airshow. The Miramar Airshow (used to be the El Toro Airshow) is Sep 30 to Oct 2. I'm currently working on restoring a B-25 Mitchell.gon2srf wrote:What planes?

Definitely sounds interesting. I'd want to see that track. At least stashing stores would be fairly easy since we could drive it pretty close to where we need to store it.BorregoWrangler wrote:There's a route through Anza-Borrego that I would like to backpack over a few days once it gets cooler (and I get lighter) out there. Of course there's no way we could carry enough water with us so we'd have to go out beforehand and bury a few caches with food and water along the route.
What I have in mind is start at Bow Willow campground, along Highway S2 and then head north to a camp on a high bluff above Arroyo Seco Del Diablo. From there, its on towards the upper end of Fish Creek Wash, past Hapaha Flat to the next camp at Harper Flat. Then across Harper Flat, through Harper Canyon towards and across Highway 78, through Buttes Canyon to camp just above San Felipe Creek. The last day would end with a winding route through the Borrego Badlands to Highway S22. Sound like fun?
Sounds interesting. Can we enlist Willie and his chopper to drop off supplies.BorregoWrangler wrote:There's a route through Anza-Borrego that I would like to backpack over a few days once it gets cooler (and I get lighter) out there.
