    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada More pics of The Bat Caves. See the grouping of about 30 bats on the cave wall. There were some big bats in there too. I got my head side-swiped a couple times as they were flying out.

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada We had a good week on the lake. The lake gods were good to us once again. Someone in the trailer village found a really cool natural cave in the Gypsum Bay area while hiking last year, complete with stalactites and all. We finally got a chance to hike...

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada Here is a map that shows Sandy Cove in relation to Calville and the beginning of the narrows, like Skiya posted. It's 'heavily populated' especially on weekends because it's one of, if not THE longest stretch of nice, semi-remote sandy beach in all...

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada Thanks LVC. A great time! Hualapai is right at the entrance, or south end of Gregg Basin. When you come around the corner and can see Sandy Point, look off to your right, you're there. The island is actually called Channel Island, I just refer to the...

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada Wow! I was wayyyy off spotting Separation Canyon in my previous pic. I got to looking at it again when I saw QC's post and realized I was looking at the wrong area. I've been to S.C. and it's not nearly that far up the river! :facepalm: Here's where it...

    Home theatre systems

    Re: Home theatre systems I just built a new Media Center. I went to a 55" 3D smart TV and upgraded my surround since I needed one that was compatible with 3D. I did the research and I ended up with a Yamaha system. It's far less complicated than the Harmon Kardon system I had, and far less...

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada Hey, you don't want us coming out and stinking up the joint now, do you? :laugh: Looks like good weather for the weekend. I'm heading out in the morning to work on the place and detail the boat. If you're in TBar stop by for a cold one!

Our 3 day trip included perfect weather (until the ride home!) and 500 miles of off road trails from near Johannesburg CA up through the Panamint Mts. and over to Beatty, NV then NW, almost as far north as Magruder Mtn, NV...

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada I got home yesterday from a 3 day, 730 mile off road trip and had to drive through 60mph+ winds that caused the dust hitting us broadside in a topless vehicle. Not the funnest of times.

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada This is a little Cove we used to love stopping in, especially at this elevation. It's a little cove appropriately named Spring Cove, as it had a little spring feeding into it. When these were taken it was only a couple feet deep and our 2 Dobies loved it!

    calling all lake mead boaters! nevada

    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada This was from a couple years ago at a lower water elevation than now. I think pretty much all the people in the pic are from Temple Bar Trailer Village. This was a great beach, but only the beach area in the foreground was really protected from the...
