Anyone Up For Davies Canyon/Valley?

This is east of the Valley of the Moon and south of Ocotillo exit off the 8 east. Never been there but it looks interesting.

I think there are locked gates out there. John and Craig went out there a few months ago, and found a bunch of them.

Yea, we were foiled by a locked gate just about everywhere we went. Still a good time tho'! Here's a link to the run report where you can find pix, my gpx file, and John's video of our run...
