Light Offroading - Day trip to Trona Pinnacles

[grleon65]

Hey Y'all,

The wife and I took a nice ride out to the Trona Pinnacles on SB Sunday instead of watching the game. I was intending on coming in from the South and doing the 20 miles thru the dirt on RM143, but damn if @John M and his don't go out unless you have the kitchen sink with you didn't way on me . Regardless, we got a late start anyway and we went in from the north off of hwy 178. It was a beautiful day for a picnic lunch w/o wind and noise. We hit the fish rock place on the way home.

LGB!

OUTSTANDING!! What a great day. Those Pinnacles are so cool.
Thank You for sharing your adventure.
Don’t worry about your kit, you don’t need it until you do
No need to be as paranoid as me lol
I’ve had a life of being Over-prepared, carrying redundant systems and “Just in case” shxt…lol
I can’t get my day pack under 10 MFing pounds?? I carry a fire starter, TWO-headlamps, emergency blanket and other stuff I should never need on a day-hike..
It’s a mental illness

Love the trip thanks again for sharing

It's all good! I completely understand the idea and practice of self reliance / rescue. I've spent many years night diving for lobster, you do dive with a buddy, but just the same ocean. We're getting there with our gear setup. Thank you for that list BTW.

LOL I carry one light and two fire starters. But it probably should be two and two as I've used a light quite a bit and have only built one fire out. Gee, thanks for making my pack heavier.
