Multi Shots from the trail.

[DG Rider]

@DG Rider, try putting it in without the semi-colon and just leave a space in its place. I got it to pop right up on google maps. I don’t think you’ll want to come in from the south with your 700, but the stream channel was a bit more civil to the north.

Tried it a number of ways yesterday and couldn't get it to work with google. I DID get it to work with my map app, which is why I deleted the post.

I was up there a little less than a year ago...

Multi - Shots from the trail.

Came in from the south. Hit the more eastern, really rough section, did about half of it and said screw this. Went back and did the more Western section...I think this may be the stream bed you are referring to. Nothing bad on it, but the next ridge to the north looked like more super rough stuff.
I didn't see anything that I thought I couldn't make it over (remember, there have been monsoons since then), but having been on the north end before, it didn't think it was worth the constant scraping and banging, so I headed back. I don't mind that type of wheeling IF it goes somewhere cool, but I didn't find the north end all that cool. I did it in my 500 and came about a close as I've ever been to flipping it...

You would think I'm strange I don't mind how dirty it gets but when I done I gets wash by hand top bottom everything . Bleach white for tires , car soap S C 1 when done . I'm not happy till it looks like it never happened. You could see it nasty one day and the next think it was never rode. I...

There was also a road I took that seemed to go southeast. For some reason, I didn't take pics of it that day, but you went past some cool rock formations. Unfortunately, the trail was on the side of a hill and has sloped off some to the point that it would have been sketchy sidehilling, so I have no ideal where it goes. Some sport machine would probably do it easy.

A fb post informed me about the Sultana mine in the hills above Riverside AZ. Lots of vertical shafts here...

 

[DG Rider]

What was this...

More shafts and railings...

 

[DG Rider]

After I got done with sultana, I decided to head over to River road and check out the rail cars....

About a hundred yards from the spot there is historic Riverside graveyard. This is a strange location for graveyard because it's right in the edge of a wash, so the likelihood of the graves being disturbed is pretty high. Maybe the topography has changed in the last hundred years?
I've posted pics of it before...

Back over on Florence Kelvin highway, I stopped to photograph the oft-photographed Little shack on the side of the road...

 

[DG Rider]

A bit to the South across the highway, there is an old abandoned house that is clearly visible from the road. I've passed this literally a dozen times. Today I realized there was access to this without trespassing on road property, so I went over and took a look.
While there weren't any no posted signs to be seen, they had almost certainly been ripped down at some point, so I stopped and took pictures but limited my time there.
As usual the place had been tagged...

The amount of trash around the place was pretty amazing as well.

Another reason I didn't want to go into the house was due to the fact that there were probably bee's there. Sure enough, on the back side there was a hole in the wall and I could hear the humming before I even passed the fence. Don't know if you can see it in this picture...

Is it me, or are those 250R fenders?

Is this about as bad as the trails get? Or are there tougher spots?

That's not that bad

 

[WagginTail]

That's not that bad

Got pics/videos of the tougher areas? I see the v notch posted a lot on here so I thought maybe that was the worst of the worst. I'm just trying to do some research is all.

Them are some of the spots to "hit" but honestly a lot of them look worse then they are once you are there. Some ARE pretty bad though. Honestly all depends on conditions for what ever day you are riding, some of the GREEN trails can be gnarly at times, big ruts, wash outs, etc.
