official_style Posted May 19, 2009 Report Posted May 19, 2009 I was doing some googling, and i kept seeing all these places advertising atv tours in the grand canyon. Since im going to be out in vegas soon, i wont be too far from the south side of the grand canyon. Anyone ever ride out there? Quote

desertdeweller Posted May 20, 2009 Report Posted May 20, 2009 A co worker hiked it about 6 months ago. he told me the tribe at the bottom had quads down there. I am not sure if those are the ones for the tour or not but he said everything had to be flown by helicopter there. All of the tribes supplies, parts for the bikes, gas etc.. I don`t know if they have any that you can take your own bikes to or how you would get them there. something that would have to be looked into Quote

official_style Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Posted May 22, 2009 so we would have to go with some lame ass guide on a utility probably. that sucks. Quote
Invader Posted May 22, 2009 Report Posted May 22, 2009 when are you going to be in vegas? I ride 25 miles north of blythe, ca. maybe we can meet up. got some great cross country rides. I figure if you are coming to vegas to ride, you will swing by glamis also? if you do you will drive right by my river place. let me know!! Quote
official_style Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Posted May 22, 2009 im leaving next weekend, so we should be in vegas by june 4th, im staying for likw 3 weeks, then driving home. i would definetly be down to meet up and ride in cali. we were not going to go to glamis because everyone said it would be way too hot, were going to hit dumont dunes tho.

I love dumont but it is on the way to death valley. it may be hotter then glamis. but bring both sets of tires there are some great hard pack trails to mines and up a little river!! http://www.duneguide.com/sand_dune_guide_dumont_dunes.htm here is a pretty cool site that talks all about dumont.
