I am supposed to be going on a nice, easy drive. Not a stress filled one. But it all worked out in the end. And I know exactly how to get to Ghost Mountain now!Doug Laninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579793294984734214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-30287319908798114182014-01-30T20:13:40.805-06:002014-01-30T20:13:40.805-06:00Whew ... what an adventure!

We will be going back that way several more times. May not make it to Yuma this year. May just stay here thru February.Doug Laninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579793294984734214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-9308823960666636382014-01-30T07:36:58.582-06:002014-01-30T07:36:58.582-06:00Well that was quite an eventful day. As I recall ...Well that was quite an eventful day. As I recall I think we had a difficult time locating Ghost Mountain the first time as well. Yes it's a strenuous hike alright & one which I've made 7 or 8 times now. Too bad you didn't have more time at the top. Would have been nice at that time of day with all the lengthening shadows spilling into the surrounding canyons. When you missed the Blair Valley turn off & went another mile you were very close to Box Canyon where ruts can still be seen beside a dry waterfall made my settlers wagons years ago. And further on down that highway into the Vallecito Valley is the old Butterfield stage coach stop. Also an old Indian Village site just about a mile or so from the Ghost Mountain site. Your getting to see lots of new stuff. The big stone eagle near Warner Springs is neat. You can combine that stop with Julian as well. It's nice when you get up top the San Yacinto mountains there, Lots of trees. Be sure to get up a down Montezuma's Grade. Take a parachute. If you take the route from Warner Springs to Julian be sure to come back down the mountain through Banner Springs heading in the direction fo the Yacqui Pass again. Maybe you will more Sheep:))Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.com
