    I know this is going to be more photography and less exploring, but can we do a little? Maybe just go in deep past the Blue Room for some shots? (Since I haven't gone too much farther in, past the Blue Room)

      I don't think we have ever gone into a familiar mine and NOT explored. So yes we will be doing some exploring. Plus all the really good photo opportunities are far back in the mine.

          Is road access to the mine heavy? Meaning, will a car make it there? Or would we need an SUV?

          We aren't planning on the shooting activity, but we are planning on being to the mine at 1pm for the photography workshop.

            Hey Josh,

            It's paved and plowed all the way up through the town. There is a long driveway and parking lot just off the main street to the right that isn't plowed. (That's the mine's driveway/parking lot) I didn't want to redline my car so I just parked as high up that snow packed driveway as I could get.

                How come? There really is no need for a 4x4. Just an extra few steps if you don't.

                Are you in the same boat I am? You have a sweet 4x4 but you are doing work on it right now?

                  So basically it's just a short walk? I can do that!

                        Sounds good!

                        One more question. Does anyone by chance have an extra helmet that they would be willing to lend out for the day? I may be bringing my cousin, and he is a noob to this and doesn't have one. I'd like him to see what it's all about and get a good taste of all the fun things in there.

                          Sorry I can't go Stu. It's either pay for gas/batteries and such to get there and go exploring, or pay bills so I can go in February. Shame on you for using my girlfriend to try to convince me to go too.

                              Yeah, the links not there. you can go to www.meetup.com and join and then look for the group Mojave Underground. It shows all the trips we have planned and coming up. I know that they are already out there, so I would just plan on coming. Make sure you are there by 1:00 so we don't miss you. I am heading out right now. But if you need directions you can call me at 801-821-6228. Thanks. Robert
