I hope this helps you to see the runway...that is really there.

The Jeep photo is obviously a fake. The plane? I would think so, too.

"Ladeesh and Gentle Ben, we're making our twelf shtep approash into Harry's back yard *hic*." (sorry. I made up this line for a previous post, but this seemes appropriate.)

That Jeep thing might be fake but there are some trails like that here in AZ. My dad took a truck on one as a kid on Mt.Ord but they have since cut into the mountain to widen it. Also the back way from Lake Pleasant to Crown King has one spot that is very narrow with a cliff if you are in a full size truck. A very cool trail if you have a quad. I did it on a 3 wheeler. Crown King is a small town in the middle of a mountain top with a hotel a couple shacks and a bar

When I was doing my out of town route we had some time to kill and I thought it would be cool to drive up there and check it out! Well 2 hours later we were just getting into the town and there wasn't a clean spot on my truck anywhere!!!

And some parts of the road are for one truck at a time and some of those have blind spots going into them.

Next time I go it will be in a 4 wheel truck!!

Hey Brian, I have driven the dirt road to Crown King several times with a drum set in the back of my truck. On some of the rougher parts it sounded like a drum solo in the back of the truck. I played at the bar there lots of times and always hated the drive especially on the way home in the dark. Thanks for the memories of that "road". The tunnel always made me slow up and wait and watch and try to listen for another vehicle coming the other way. Nights it was easier because of headlights. Thanks, your fellow Valley of the Sun modeler, Patrick

Sweet! I aspire to be a drummer but I am no good I have a set. Yeah the dirt road with switchback leading to I-17 is just fun if you know what your doing. The one from there to lake pleasent is crazy like this. I actually sent a 3 wheeler over the edge once. It got stuck in between 2 trees. We made a human chain with our arms and got it back. I messed up all the plastic, handle bar, headlight and such but It still ran. I finished to Crown King and back to the Lake. Oh and that was a little Honda 110 Sorry if this is a thread jack people This Jeep picture reminds me of fun times on roads like this.
