Default Phoenix area JK Run at the Saguaro Lake Coves Sat 1-17-2009

Ok Phoenix we are heading to the Coves!......also called, Butcher Jones, or the Rolls OHV area.
The Coves are located just North of Saguaro Lake, on Bush Hwy near East Mesa.
The Coves area is just a large playground for Jeeps with lots of hills and sandy washes to cruise up & down.
If you are New to 4 wheeling you will have a great time on this trip learning to drive your JK.
Each Cove will lead us to the lake for some spectacular scenery and picture spots, so bring your cameras, and pack a lunch and get ready for some fun!

Meeting place and time will be the Bashas' grocery store located on the corner of Brown & Ellsworth Rd. in East Mesa at 9:30 am.
You can take any Frwy to the Red Mtn. 202 and exit the Brown Rd. exit and head East to Ellsworth.

If you have a CB or FMRS radio bring it with you!

So post up if your joining us, and we will add you to the list!

Default Unbelievably Newbie

Greener than Jeep Green when it comes to offroading...but I have been to some trails at Butcher Jones three times in last week. GREAT TIME, but it was my first time really off roading...anyway interested in joining you guys, but don't want to slow you guys up as I am sure I will be cautious, and then some.

Also I live relatively close to Butcher Jones and it would be prefer to meet you guys there. Besides food & drink what should I bring? I don't have a winch or any accessories so would not be very useful to you guys.

OK...done rambling. Let me know...

Brian - Does it take 30 min to 1 hour to get there? If so, we can probably come out for a few hours too.
