El Camino Del Diablo - November?

[articulate]

Two quick questions:

1. Do you prefer running it east/west or west/east?
2. Do you prefer entering/exiting at Wellton or Foothills Blvd?

Right now I'm leaning towards Foothills Blvd so I can check out the Fortuna Mine.

I've only run the thing west to east (4 times now), and I like the way that ends. Ajo is a neat town for your reappearance into civilization. Whereas Welton ain't much more than a truck stop, and Yuma is . . .Yuma.

Yes, check out Fortuna Mine. You get to drive right on the western slopes of those craggy beasts of Tinajas Altas Mountains for a good amount of time, and then select any track that passes through them to get to the Tinajas themselves. It's hard for me to explain exactly why, but that dry dead looking desert is just exciting to drive through.

I wish I could go with you.

Cool, thanks for the input guys. I think I would like to end in Ajo, so looks like I'm going west to east starting at Foothills Blvd.
