GPS Coordinates
Hello,
Looking for GPS coordinates for off road trails in Calif. & Arizona. Can someone point me in the right direction? Keith |

I hope not.
We were out in the Canadian Bush and a bunch of armed drunks from the local hunt camps stopped by our campsite and were dangerously incensed when they found out we communicated via the internet. They were told a local 4x4 group posted GPS trail info and were properly worried about their cabins getting vandalized. It was almost open season on Jeeps that day and almost came to the point of someone having to go for the police. The real sad part is they were right. That camp area 25 miles from the nearest house is now not useable due to all the city yahoos that now have directions. Garbage, broken glass, insane parties all night that we can hear from 2 lakes away, etc....

???????
I really do hope no one gives you any directions with your obvious antagonistic attitude. I certainly wouldn't want someone with 'tude like you appear to have along on our runs.

I'll admit that it is a shame what happens to a lot of good spots when they become too well known, but just because someone doesn't like you implying that they are irresponsible doesn't mean you should insult them further. Just my opinion, at least. And not that my opinion really has anything to do with 4x4's... -Will |

After reading that again, I am sorry if you took it personally like
someone else implied, it was a rant about how GPS internet (read public) information shouldn't be posted for all and everyone to have access. Someone could get killed over it in many backwoods areas. They even are armed in Canada, let alone the US eh. If you thought it was me attacking your leaving garbage around, sorry but I don't know you, so I can't make that call.
