HWY 88 EAST OR WEST TO BLUE LAKES RD.
STAY ON BLUE LAKES RD FOR 11 - 12 MILES
KEEP RIGHT TOWARDS LOWER BLUE LAKE AT FORK FOR MEADOW AND TWIN LAKES .... DO NOT TURN LEFT....
ROAD WILL DEAD END AT LOWER BLUE LAKES CAMP GROUND.

THIS IS ALSO VERY NEAR THE TRAIL HEAD FOR DEER VALLEY OHV TRAIL. 1:1 RIGS CAN WHEEL FROM HWY 88 TO HWY 4 ON A CLASS 5 - 6 .... LOTS OF ROUGH CAMPING AVAILABLE ON THE TRAIL .... BRING EM IF YOU GOT EM

Yes sir, I could not agree more. A quick recon, (I said quick), of the area and we will find the G-spot, group spot, get your mind outta the gutter, for the L.O.S.T. G6......huh...

Spucknit should be w/ us so just look for glow sticks, parachute pants, and the repetitive shuffle of ravers to an authentic DJ Baja-Beats remix of Luniz and Cypress Hill!

Sounds like a party to me

Is this spot car friendly to get to G Central? Or do we need to trade in the Monte for an off road vehicle?
