I’m last-minute thinking that it’s be nice to get out to the desert tomorrow, Sunday 12/16. Anyone interested?

Last time @jimmynotjim and I did Fish Creek Wash from the Split Mountain side... am thinking about doing it from the Vallecitos Wash & S2 side this time. Out either Arroyo Tapiado and/or Arroyo Seco del Diablo Trail, down Diablo Drop Off, and out Fish Creek Wash.

I’m open to other trails that a stock 4Runner TRDORP can handle, if someone has a stronger preference for location.

Let me know if you’re interested.

@Rhinle — it’s last-minute, but tagging you because you said that you were interested in the next one

@phqduphead — this might not be technical enough for you, but I saw you were looking to go out this coming week...

I love that route, unfortunately I’m stuck in Germany and hope to get home tomorrow night.

Maybe @2112 R @4runnerfiend @NC(4)Runner might want to go?

Thanks for remembering me, but a bit too last minute for me. I have a 12 hour overtime shift tomorrow I can't get out of.

Possibly. I’ll check with the fam. I’d have my wife and 2 year old with me.
What time you thinking?

Thanks for the shout out! We gotta get a run in when you have time

Good looking out, thanks for looping me in.

I have my company holiday party tonight and it will all depend on how much I drink if I can wake up early enough to make it.

Give me a time and place to meet up and I'll reply when I get home tonight with a solid response.
If I come I'll have my wife and kids (10 and 12) along as well.

I’d be good with leaving San Diego at 7 or 8, so meeting up around 9 or 10. Would that work? Much later and we might end up rushing to get out before sunset...

Where in SD are you? I’m in Northpark

University City. 1:45 to 2:00 to Vallecitos Wash for me.

I was just double-checking the map, and coming from the south (I-8), it looks like Canyon Sin Nombre comes up before Vallectos Wash and might be a more direct route. Anyone know if one of them is more interesting or prettier?

Thanks for including me, too much adulting to do tomorrow, but up for future trips. Maybe next time ! Have a good time and be safe.

Yeah that was the route we took last time. Wife said she is in. So gotta nail a time down to meet and a place. Last time we ran we met in Alpine at a Chevron.

[QUOTE=4runnerfiend;3193744] What time works for you? I don’t have a two year old to factor into the equation! Not sure yet if any kids are coming. Pretty sure that my wife isn’t...

Let’s just meet at the trailhead for Canyon Sin Nombre...

And, of course, bring lunch.

Don’t forget to check out the mud caves before you go down the drop
