i've been trying to find a route file for something like this forever and can't seem to find one. If you got, make a route and upload it for the rest of us if you can : )

Go to the LA-Barstow to Vegas page on the Adventure Rider Website. If you look under the GPS page, Called Layin Down Tracks. there will be routes for you to download. You can also look at each years routes. There are so many ways to get there that go North of Baker or South of Baker.

Here's another site a friend of mine runs. It has many many routes all over the South and Northwest that can be done in trucks as well with proper planning.

I have a main route and bunch of side routes to see things. I am not local there and I know a lot of people do this run. Care to be the "pre runner" and give me feed back on the routes and if the stops are worth seeing. Idea would be to add these route to the raptor run database.

Blue line is the "main line". Might as well call it the electric trial as it follows power lines for most of it.

PM me if you care to check out the trails and what format you want the nav files in.

Be aware that power line road will have chunks missing in unexpected places. Take it slow going up and around some of those hills. Holes big enough to swallow your truck can appear from no where.

Have fun and be safe. That road is a blast.

Make sure to send me images for the website if you take the photo detours I gave you. Especially the "UFO Maybe" stop LOL.

I will post this route to the website this week
