This got me thinking that I need to start doing more exploring like those mentioned above and less of populated places like Rubicon. The Rubicon trail is amazing but I think I need to see something new and more relaxed. Pozo La Panza and the other is just one of the areas I will put on my list to visit for the 2011 season. For more current runs I would like to set up a snow run, and if anyone is interested CA4WDC is putting on a great event in the snow.
Here is the link, its for the Winter Fun Festival with good snow runs and meet lots of people.
California Association of 4WD Clubs, Inc. :: Winter Fun Festival
(CA4WDC is a great site, good to check it out often for news on our trails and how to keep them open.)
If the above doesnt work out I may go to Pismo in Mid January for MLK weekend. There is another club that goes there on that weekend every year and they have a great time.
