What a nice SURPRISE......

Dave, it's not Sherman 4x4, I want to hit that one too, but a call to the ranger confirmed it's closed till mid june... he said there are a ton of downed trees they have to clear on the trail.... I definitely want to check it out too, just trying to figure out how we can stage multiple trailers....I'm gonna have to check out the camping in keyesville.... I know most people wouldnt want to drag their trailer for 6mi down rancheria to evans flat...so keyesville seems like a better spot...

The Bakersfield trailblazers usually open sherman as it is one of their adopt-a-trail runs....

That trail is great, best part. it's close! I'll try to get a couple of pictures up here. It's as close to the riding in Wyoming as we've found. There is also plenty of old mining stuff to check out up there too. If we can find sufficient camping and other arrangements I would definitely be up for a group ride up there.

One a few attempts at this little rock pile.



Reassess a line........


And the Short Bus manages!!

And I still make the kids ride even though I'm not willing to.

Use Keyesville Rd right across from the main dam campground entrance. You don't have to pull very far at all. It's all dry camping and access to everything you want. Here's a little map I found when my son and I vacationed there a few years ago. We stayed at the KOA on 178 northeast of the dam and couldn't get to Keyesville with our RZR, but we took the P/U and scouted it promising to return and camp by the river. We'll be back... Wonderful place.
