WhiTnEy PocKeTs


 





















Thank goodness the weather finally let up enough that we could go play. We were so sad that our Moab trip got cancelled last weekend so we have been looking forward to this weekend. We hooked on the trailer and some fourwheelers and headed out to WhiTneY PocKetS in Nevada. It was such a cool little spot. Saturday was rainy, but not bad enough to stop us! We rode on a few trails. One took us to a place called "Devils Throat" that is this huge sink hole. Like the earth just sunk! It is like 100' wide and 100' deep. Random! Then the rest of the day we were on trails that took us into the washes that lead out to Lake Mead. (Smart place to be while its raining!) We got to the Overton marina (or what it was once) and we drove around, basically on what used to be the lake floor. It really was kind of creepy. Sunday was gorgeous weather and we drove out to the old mining area called GoLd bUtTe where they used to have a little mining town. All that is left now are some old shafts that we got to see and go in (probably not the best idea either). We had a blast! Its so cool that we have so many awesome places this close by! Here are some pics.
