Hi ejsaunders,
I was probably about 200 maybe 220 miles north of Tijuana, Mexico (as the crow flies). Fairly close to Victorville and Barstow, CA.
Here is a google earth link to show the proximity
Area. I do not have any exact routes as they have been overwritten on my GPS from other trips. Never
thought I would have to reproduce them.
Echo3FoxTrot,
I will go back out to the area in early Fall. It is extremely hot in the area maybe in upwards of 115, so I will spare my son and myself the agony of
the heat. I don't know exactly where we were, but I am fairly confident, I can find the big quartz rock outcropping with some trial and error.

Great idea on the Wizard of Oz Movie. I will rent it and see what becomes of it. At the first sign of disturbance, the movie goes off, and I'm
running for the hills!
All,
I went up to the Sierra's and pulled out the fly rod and produced some small brookies and browns, some fairly intense 4 wheelin in the White
Mountains exploring some old Indian hunting/gathering areas and just hanging out with my son for 4 days. Nothing to much of interest, albeit I do
have 3 hours of video that at some time I will have to sift through. Nothing was ever said about the "witch" by myself or Mitch. I will probably
chalk this up to imagination, but who knows. I will say there sure was some really creepy old mines in the area. I don't have the means or
curiosity to explore.
Take care, and have a great day/night.
