P residents Message Happy Thanksgiving

to all H4W members

and their families!

We are to be thankful

for all the blessings

we enjoy in this great country of

ours. And a large part of the thanks

goes to our veterans who have fought

to keep us free and to those serving

today in uniform around the world.

You can thank them by taking part

in the Veterans‟ Day Parade

November 11th. Decorate your jeeps

and join the celebrations. And for the

many H4W‟ers that are veterans – this one‟s for you! See you

there.

And we will be holding our annual Turkey Roast on Saturday

November 13th at Campbell Ranch. Join us for an afternoon of

fun, jeep games, and then of course, great food. The jeep games

start at 2 pm and dinner at 4 PM. It‟s your club so get involved –

it‟s all good stuff!

To keep the Trail Bosses communicating we have a Trail Boss

meeting set for November 10th. Those of you interested in leading

runs please show up. And to build your skills we have an

advanced 4X4 course set for November 22nd.

Let me extend a big „Thank You!‟ to those members who

participated in the annual London Bridge Days parade. With 31

jeeps the H4W‟ers made a statement to the public and BLM that

we are a force to be reckoned with! Mike MacLean - great job!

And the fun continued later that day as Willie Williams hosted a

Pizza Pie in the Park Party.

Now “back to business” – We continue our response to the BLM

about our desert trails. We hosted two public comment letter

writing clinics. This is the most critical challenge we as a club have

ever faced in our seventeen year history. Our responses to the

BLM, both as individuals and as an organization, are critical.

Everyone please send the BLM comment letters.

See you on the trails, Bruce

High Line Trail

O n Oct 2, 2010, despite a forecast high of 103

degrees, 7 jeeps showed up to do the run. This

is the first run I have done that included visual

and audio effects…….lightening, thunder and rain. Made

the run much more interesting. With the storm front it

kept the temperature down but the rain did play a little

havoc when it came time for lunch.

Everyone did such a super job driving I don‟t have any

wild stories to tell you despite that fact the rain was really

pouring down on some of the more technical aspects of

the run. The only real excitement is when I almost got a

new hood ornament…..a motorcycle, going at a pretty

good speed, came around a blind curve and for a moment

thought he would become part of my jeep. A disaster

diverted.

We did stop at U-Go Falls and had 2 jeeps successfully

traverse the waterfall. With the current Trail

Management Plan this route is closed on both Map C &

D, so we decided to take advantage of it while we could.

I want to say thank you to the people who came on the

run and a special Thank You to Tom Bunnell for being

tail gunner.

Cat Tail Run

O n September 25th, after meeting up with eight

avid jeepers, who weren‟t afraid of the heat

(105 degrees), we started the run A.S.A.P.

Everyone went over the obstacle with a minimum

amount of spotting, which made it very easy for me

(Thank You Guy‟s). We had lunch in the shade of a nice

cool cliff with a very nice cool breeze, which was soooooo

refreshing. On our way back there were a number of

extra credit‟s that was collected, and we ALL went up

the Bowling Alley. I had fun, and I believe everyone else

did also.

Thanks to Steve Perry for tail gunning, and thanks to all

who had the fortitude to attend this run on such a warm

day.

Goat Hill Passage

T he run on Oct 6, 2010 did not get off to a good

start thanks to the trail boss giving incorrect

information as to where the meeting location

was. Half were at the location listed on the web and the

other half were at Fantom & Reef. We managed to get

everyone together, after I realized my error, and the 8

jeeps headed out on the run.

Everyone managed to climb the first sandy hill without

any problem. That area is known for stopping a few jeeps

dead in their tracks. The rest of the run is very scenic in

nature with its share of ups and downs to keep you awake.

I think this run should be called Burro Haven. We spotted

4 different groups of burros….with the smallest group

being 4 and the largest 8. Never remember seeing that

many burros on one run.

I want to apology for the incorrect listing of the meeting

location, and thank those who came on the run. A special

Thank You to Bob Drew for being tail gunner.

Willie Williams, Trail Boss

Copperhead Run

S aturday October 9th, nine vehicles gathered at

Sara Park for this run and due to the fact that

everyone, except one couple had been on this

run the drivers meeting was a snap. After traveling to

our air down location and starting the trail on this

beautiful fall morning, there isn‟t a lot to say until we

got to the narrow ridge area, which everyone traversed

with style. And of course this area is adjacent to J.B.‟s

Revenge and is of interest to many of our drivers, who

walked over to take a look. Well, our tail gunner Steve

Perry, with his Kreuzenstein special modified jeep put

on an exhibition for everyone by driving up through this

short but gnarly canyon with Dave Billick spotting. This

naturally WOWed everyone. We then continued on

entering the wash that leads to Copperhead Canyon,

and it may be noted that this wash provides several

challenges of its own. Once in the canyon besides a few

boulders, we came to the off camber squeeze, and every-

one made it through with no problems other than

leaving some black paint from their slider rails on the

rocks. After that there were numerous rocks, some

large, some medium, culminating at the end with a

medium size waterfall.

We then climbed up and out of the wash, and had lunch

on top of one of the mesa‟s. From here we wandered

around some of the beautiful rock outcroppings, past

the tailing pile from the 12 mile tunnel, down into a red

sandstone lined wash and up and over a sand dune area

to our air up spot, and on to home.

Thanks to Steve Perry for tail gunning, and the

exhibition, and also to all who attended. What a great

group to wheel with.

Safety Committee “Trail Talk” Safety Rant of the Month –

“Oh where oh where has my little dog gone, oh

where oh where can he be, oh now I remember

he jumped in the jeep, he’s gone four wheeling

with me!”

Lots of people have pets -

the most common being cats

or dogs with the most

frequently encountered when

wheeling is the dog. While

they are man’s best friend

we need to remember that we brought them along

so therefore we are responsible for their well-

being and safety. While a helmet and fire suit

may not be necessary while in the jeep they must

be controlled while out of it. Keep them on a

leash for their own safety and the comfort of

other 4 wheelers (I just can’t believe people get

upset when a dog sticks his head in their lunch

box, jumps on them with dirty feet, or uses their

tire as a urinal). Plus a loose dog dashing about is

a hazard to all when jeeps are maneuvering. And

the old “sticking the nose into every bush” frenzy

could likely result in a find of something very

nasty.

Our area is known for rattlesnakes so for those

of you who frequent the outdoors with their dogs

you may want to check with the local vets to see

if they stock anti-venom. It’s expensive and has

a short shelf life so its unknown if any LHC vet

may routinely stock it. If not you may have to go

to Kingman or Bullhead - Best to call around now

to find out. Also Red Rock Biologics offers a

vaccine to defend your dog by creating an

immunity that works right away to help neutralize

the toxins. Here’s a link -

http://www.redrockbiologics.com/

Coyotes are out and you’re in their “house” when

in the boonies. Coyotes can and do kill dogs using

the pack technique of calling a dog out and then

they all gang in. Also cactus is bad on the snout

and feet so carry a small pair of needle nose

pliers. They also work on your two legged buddies

too.

Boriana Mine Run October 14th

A cool morning greeted 10 jeeps, 16 members

and one guest as we headed east on the 40

from the 95. As we traveled toward the Alamo

Road exit we noticed the state had money again as the

rest stop was open. At the start of the Boriana Road we

aired down and fine turned some radios coming out of

their summer slumber. Then it was off to the Hualapai‟s.

No breeze meant our Tail Gunners Ladell and Judy

Olson were driving by radar at times. Once the track

narrowed the dust subsided and we started our climb.

Early West stopped the group just prior to the Boriana

Mine and surprised us with a little noticed spring and

pond filled with goldfish left by the miners. We then

stopped at the Boriana mine where Howard Wicks led the

group to a second but much larger goldfish pond. We

continued and crested the top of the Hualapais. The trees

were turning in the fall colors – brilliant yellows, oranges,

and reds contrasted against the green pines and shrubs.

We also came across 4 large elk. We stopped at the pine

grove for lunch under the trees. As we headed out Larry

Martin noticed his front sway bar rod end had ripped off

one side. The immediate emergency call went out -

“Ladell !” He organized a virtual Indy 500 pit crew and

out came the tool kit. The fix was made and off we went.

The group stopped to inspect the newly reopened road

that drops down west into Walnut Canyon. Off again and

we climbed to 7,000 feet and then down to the Hualapai

Lodge where more elk and lots of Mule Deer greeted us.

A great day and a fun run. Thank you to AED crew

Chuck and Sue Guibord and Tail Gunners Ladell and

Judy Olson.

Swap Meet

F or three Sunday‟s in October, members of our

jeep club were at the Swap Meet to talk to the

public regarding the BLM Trail Management

Plan. Our goal was to make them aware of the pending

trail closures and encourage them to write letter

expressing their concerns.

The response from the public was an overwhelming

“keep our trails open”. Many we talked with were from

Calif. where they have had first hand experience with

trail closures and the impact it had on the OHV use.

Some said they moved here specifically because of the

availability of the lake in the summer and the desert in

the winter. Some were winter visitors who came here to

enjoy the desert scenery and sense of freedom and

adventure of being in the desert. Some did not even use

the desert but were against the trail closures on the

principal that the desert should be available to the

people who make up this great country.

Let me tell you, the group of volunteers from our club

who helped with this endeavor were just great. Not one

person got past our booth without being approached.

They were friendly and courtesy while providing the

public with the information they needed. Good Job.

Also a big Thank You to Bob Hill for providing the EZ

up for shade and Ken Weller and Bob Carson for taking

turns being team leaders for the group.

Cooks Night Out October 26, 2010

I t‟s really hard to beat a $2 special Schlotzskys

sandwich! 23 Havasu 4 Wheelers attended the 2nd

Cooks Night Out of this Jeepin' season at Schlotzskys

in Havasu.

The food was great, the beer was cold and the service was

excellent. Thanks also to all who purchased candy bars

from Ana Hofstetter grandson to help him go on his school

trip to Italy. Everyone likes chocolate and we sold every

candy bar that he brought..

It was nice to see some familiar faces that have arrived

back in town. They all look ready to take on the trails that

were all fighting so hard to keep open!

Thanks to all who attended! Next month there won‟t be a

Cooks Night Out due to the H4W Thanksgiving

Extravaganza. Stay tuned for a Hopefully, special

December Cooks Night Out.

London Bridge Days Parade

A t last count, 33 Jeeps and one Toyota met on

McCulloch Drive for the annual London

Bridge Days Parade. After fortifying

ourselves with coffee and donuts, we departed down

McCulloch at the brisk speed of .05 mph. The vehicles

were decorated and displayed various messages to save

our trails. Our club was met with much applause and

cheers from the spectators along the parade route,

supporting our cause. I am so pleased that so many

members turned out to support the club and participate

in the parade. In fact, there were so many of us that the

radio station took a commercial break after we started,

and was back on the air before we finished.

Pizza in the Park

B oy was Jack Hardie Park busy on 10-16-10, but

we did manage to find a nice shady spot for

our pizza party. We had about 41 people

present to enjoy the pizza‟s which came in 5 different

types of toppings. Hopefully everyone found something

to satisfy their taste buds. It was a very relaxing

atmosphere giving everyone a chance to move around

and visit with each other. It was suggested we do this

more often. Sounds good to me….I like pizza.

Willie Williams

NOW IT‟S UP TO YOU!

Your public lands committee, along with other volunteers

have put in thousands of hours writing, developing

programs, attending meetings, publicizing the closures,

contacting the public and government agencies, and

researching the effects of the BLM Route closures on your

trails.


If we don‟t get a massive amount of letters in to the BLM,

almost all of your trails will be closed. Do nothing and we

are guaranteed of 75% closure of the trails in the Havasu

area.

Go now to the havasu4wheelers.org web site. On the main

page click on the “Click here to access the BLM trail

closures page” and you will be directed to our BLM Trail

Closure Documentation page. You‟ll see a green bar with a

series of headings. Spend a few moments clicking on each

box and looking at all the information, tools and club‟s

official letter to the BLM, and sample letters for you to send

in. All the H4W trails that are threatened are listed

alphabetically below the green bar. Click on any of them

and a sample letter is presented for your use and includes

the problem HN route numbers. Read the cover letters for

ideas, read the suggested comment section, pull up the

trails, rewrite the comments in your language with your

ideas, put your signature on them and forward them by

email, or print them off and drop at BLM. You don‟t need

the BLM form as long as you have your name, address,

phone, email and HN Route numbers on your letter or

email. Share our website address and link with your jeeping

and quading friends and neighbors.


Consider this - you devote an entire day to go out on a 4X4

run. If you do nothing we are guaranteed to loose our trails.

Your H4W team has devoted countless hours and has

produced all the information and sample letters for you to

use. It‟s all there for you - we‟ve done 95% of the work for

you so please spend just one day‟s effort and write the

comment letters! Remember, if the BLM only receives a

few letters on each trail they will not change their closure

decisions, Please do not waste all the toil and effort your

club has devoted to save your trails - now it‟s up to you!

RATING DESCRIPTION

1 EASIEST: Passable by stock vehicles. Gentle fairly wide grades.

2 EASY: Use of 2 wheel and some 4-wheel drive. Trail may have some rocks, loose road surface, and ruts but a reasonable line for driving.

3 EASIEST MODERATE: 4-wheel drive with aggressive tire treads. Expect a rough road with rocks and sand that requires lower tire pressure. Substantial sections of single lane.

3¼ MODERATE: Some 4 wheel driving experience needed. Same as above with some use of high and low range gearing. These trails have a rough, rutted surface, rocks and deep sand. Sections may be steep enough to cause traction problems, narrow shelf roads with steep drop-offs and tight clearance between rocks.

3½ HARDER MODERATE: For experienced drivers. 33” tires with aggressive tire tread, one locked differential, high and low range gearing. Potentially dangerous, large rocks, ruts, steep slopes, loose surface and narrow clearances that need to be negotiated.

3¾ HARDEST MODERATE: Skilled experienced drivers only. Same as above with both differentials locked, Some strapping/winching. Very challenging sections, extremely steep grades, loose surfaces, large rocks, deep ruts and tight clearances.

4 DIFFICULT: Highly skilled experienced drivers only. Same as above with belly up, 4 to 1 transfer case or equivalent, skid plates, beefed up axles and suspension system. Probable strapping/winching. Vehicle width and wheelbase should be considered. Possible body damage.

5 HARD: All of the above. Probable body damage.
