I'll be busy with family stuff tomorrow, but I'm in for most anything Saturday and Sunday; Cleghorn, Bradshaw, Ocotillo, Big Bear...

Looks like Jordan and I are going to go camp south of Ocotillo Wells tomorrow.
No real plans other than sitting around a campfire and relaxing.

We'll be meeting up here
12pm Friday, November 27th. 

GPS
33.249426, -116.673567

Googly Maps
https://www.google.com/maps/place/29271+CA-79,+Warner+Springs,+CA+92086/@33.2495785,-116.6757764,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x80dbb89ebcb577c3:0xe2e1db5e63400f5b?hl=en

Then we'll head into Ocotillo and head down Split Mountain Rd.
Down and around the mountain and up into the hills.

I'd love to post the exact campsite and specific directions, but it's not really on a trail.
Jordan has found this spot while exploring and it's accessed by driving up a wash.

We'll be camping roughly here
https://www.google.com/maps/place/32%C2%B056'33.2%22N+116%C2%B002'41.6%22W/@32.9396952,-116.0032547,13416m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0?hl=en

As you can see, it's kind of an in the know sort of place, so if you'd like to tag along, please post up so we don't leave you! 

We'll be monitoring the hamburger on 146.535.

All are welcome, I'm guessing 4x4 or lots of shovel work.

Awesome photos Steve, looks like you guys had a great time. The wife has already decided that we are DONE with the drama of huge family gatherings on Thanksgiving every year, and we've decided that we're going to retreat next year for some fun like this - just her and the boy and I.

I'm going to throw it out there now that I think this should become an annual SCCX run/tradition, as long as you and knightrider don't mind sharing your spot with the group. We can plan it nice and early, and prevent the last minute scramble of finding somewhere to go and who can attend. Maybe even have a makeshift thanksgiving dinner out there :)

Great pics Steve! With just a few rigs I'm sure you can explore and cover a lot more ground compared to a full group.

Thanksgiving 2015!

"Hello? Hello? Are sure you loaded this thing?" :D

I am completely in to have a yearly Thanksgiving run with a supplemental Thanksgiving dinner cooked up on the trail. :) I usually only have one or two days set for family stuff, so I would be free for the remaining Friday through Sunday of that Thanksgiving weekend.

I am willing to lead a thanksgiving camping trip out to the desert.  I can't guarantee we will be in as secluded or awesome spot as in Steve's pictures.   the spots I know would not support large groups and the spots that do support large groups, normally are quite the busy little toyhauler towns, but I'm sure I can work something out.

Well done all around guys!
 
I like Joe's Thanksgiving idea.  But he better look out.

There seems to be a new photo picture guy in town >:D

LOL!

Somebody once showed me how to use knobs and sliders in an iPad photo editing app.

All those came from my iPhone.  The composition may be OK, but the quality is still camera phone.
Joe's images always have that crisp, fresh out of the manual focus feeling!
