About this event

 

Saddleback Fire Lookout has wonderful panoramic views of the area.  There are old gold mines all over including extensive hydraulic mining sites.  We’ll drive through the Eureka Diggings as we circle back to Highway 49.  We did a pre-run down to La Porte and have decided to change the route as it was a 13 hour day.  The new route will be faster and suitable for stock Jeeps and other high clearance 4x4s.
