This Memorial weekend we setup camp at Cuddeback Dry Lake in the Mojave Desert.

Camp setup with Mpoulsen aka Hotel California.
We made our first run up RM34 looking for the old military landing strip. By the way the old military land strip and bomb test site is now closed land because of a group who vandalized it, bragging about how they did the worlds largest illegal graffiti. RM34 was dead ended about 15 miles east. so we head back west down RM 34 to RM50 and came across this old Ranch of some sort.
Did some more exploring and came across this cool piece
Day one (Saturday) was a success, it was just exploritory riding getting familiar with area and navigating it through the friends of Jawbone map.
Day two (Sunday) we figured out a route to ride out to Husky Monument.
Made it, first time here. The ride wasnโt too bad it
Looks further on the map then the actual ride. Lots of creative memorials.
We head south to the F-22 Crash site
Again first time here - we ate lunch and hung out for a bit.
From here we headed north back to camp for a break. Michale decides to do
Some more exploring North of camp and maps out route for us to check out. We are camped right off RM34 so we take that to RM29 (rm29 sucks way to rocky - take RM323 instead) to rm1444.
Michael says there is petroglyphs in this area so he takes us on a short 1 mile hike. In reality it felt like 3 miles haha.
Hey we find the petroglyphs - The bummer part is the originals are mixed in with modern ones .
From here we head back to camp to start dinner and call it a day.
What a perfect way to end the weekend. There was a small group towards the entrance off 395 and a few campers down at the lake. We got some great riding in and no crowds with great weather. Super fun trip!
