    Sullivan Canyon!

    "Report: Top has scattered loose rocks, middle to the bayliss cement driveway is all washed out. Its all single track, blaze your own trail, or follow the creeck bed. Some creek crossings were hub level deep! ... Morea lot of wet sand washes that were like quick sand. On the most part the creek had a rock bottom. A lot of errosion, and some drop offs into the stream. I haired out on most of these and walked it after I hit one deep hub level crossing. at the cement driveway, 3 foot plus erosion! It was so much fun!!! "

    Kenter, where to park?

    "Go straight up Bundy it becomes Kenter at Sunset. take Kenter to the very top trail head. Park on the street. Take the fire road up to where you can see the single track and jumps to the left...."
