Hi all! I've ventured into Anza Borrego since I was a little kid and have explored many of the easily accessible spots and some more difficult terrain. I was out last week solo with my F150 and Hawk camper, came in through Oriflame Canyon, camped up the Yaquis wash, and witnessed some amazing blooms and little crowds mid week, but my wife and I were planning on going again this weekend, but would like to get away from the inevitable crowds if at all possible.
Has anyone with a full size truck and FWC ever ventured up Lower Coyote Canyon to Sheep Canyon camp site? I know up till the third crossing is easy, and even freshly graded in sections, but with all the rain (and more in the forecast Wednesday), I worry that a fully loaded truck and camper wouldn't fare well in the crossing and the steep rocky section beyond it. My truck is on 35" all terrains with a small lift, but would be quite heavy with the whole family loaded for a weekend. Just don't want to stress out my wife by pushing the limits unnecessarily...
Any other suggestions for "roads less traveled" where we could 4x4 a bit, set up camp in a beautiful spot for a couple nights, see some blooms, and enjoy the solitude of the desert would be much appreciated!!
For some reason WTW notifications aren't working, so any advice sent to peterkatkov@gmail.com would be much great! Going this Friday afternoon the 24th.
