Default Who's up for a day-run on 2/21 or 2/22?

I'm bored...

We could do a mix/match of the following:
1. the usual Hollister Hills since it's close by
2. Pichacho Peak (south of Hollister and north of Coalinga)
3. do 3 overland/scenic trails off the 1 (Old Coast Rd, Prewitt Ridge, South Coast Ridge --- south from Hollister and west of Pichacho Peak)

As referenced from the "Guide To Northern California Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive Trails" by Charles A. Wells

Out of all of these, I've only done Hollister fyi.....

Would be nice if we could get a small group out

I'd love to but, just got the wife out of the hospital and I need to go see my daughter up at Davis for her birthday that we missed this weekend. So maybe weekend after that.

Hey Rich, sounds good. If we don't get much interest for this weekend, I've got Sunday March 1st open...

How difficult is Pichacho Peak?

***EDIT***

Sounds like it's a difficult trail. Not sure if it's a 100% true or not.

I'll hopefully be able to make a run in two weeks. Wouldn't mind heading up to the rubicon if conditions are good. Sounds like parts are closed off currently.

I'm probably going to run up to the 4 wheel parts show at San Mateo. I'm in the middle of like three home improvement projects and probably can't spare a whole day for wheeling.

Doing the Genesis dual battery install this weekend, but should be free the following. If the wife is off work that weekend it would probably be more overlanding than technical wheelin' though.

Still talking with the wife. Have to replace a axle shaft which may or may not happen. The major issue I've got going on is my sector shaft is starting to twist. So I'm a maybe.
