OVERVIEW:
|
| ZUKIWORLD's Adventure Series May
23-26 Silver City, ID., Jordan Valley, Alvord Desert,
OR. —Silver City is one of Idaho's premier ghost towns. Spend
a night in their rustic hotel or camp at the town's perimeter. Jordan valley holds some
wonderful points of interest. Soak your bones as we explore a secluded hot waterfall and
spring. Enjoy the splendor that is the Steens mountains as we traverse dunes and the playa
of the Alvord Desert. This year's
fun run is more informal and unstructured. Hopefully, making it more enjoyable for host

ITINERARY:
|
| Friday, 23rd. |
Silver City,
ID -The 3 1/2 rated Fins and Things trail runs along both sides of Sand Flats
Road between the much more difficult Hell's Revenge trail and the much higher Porcupine
Rim trail. Steep climbs up and descents down Navajo Sandstone slickrock fins provide the
excitement and the "things" leftover as the sandstone erodes provide interesting
views. |
| Saturday, 24th. |
Rome, Jordan
Valley -The 3.5 rated Steel Bender trail follows a historic wagon road that works
its way up from a beautiful canyon to elevations above 6,000 feet. It features 2 creek
crossings, numerous steep ledges, and two challenging rocky climbs that have bypasses. |
| Sunday, 25th. |
Alvord Desert
-The 4+ rated Golden Spike trail is one of the most popular at the Jeep Safari and is
offered for more days than any other. Challenging obstacles, nonstop scenery, and a road
surface between obstacles that makes for a comfortable slow steady pace helps keep this
long trail popular. The trail was developed as a connection between the Poison Spider Mesa
and Gold Bar Rim trails. |
| Monday, 26th. Memorial Day |
Alvord
Desert, Return Home -The un-rated Helldorado trails are Unusual, more like the
Rubicon then Moab, the Lower and Upper trails provided great obsticles. Upper is not for
the meek as the exit is a 10-15 foot vertical waterfall that must be winched up. |
Subject to change.
