Boy, I know we hope for no wind in the dez, but calm conditions sure let the dust hang. I was going west on Cahuilla trail friday after noon and couldn't see 10 feet. While I was poking along at 3 mph with all 5 lights on quads were passing me at 20. Saw the helo land at blu inn friday night and he dissapeared down into the dust cloud at 50 feet in the air...ballsy pilot. The emergency traffic going back and forth on the hiway was almost constant.

I was driving home along the East side of the Salton Sea and it looked like a big brown cloud sitting over there.

It was unsafe at any speed. But I got to see the stuffed coyote at shell reef

had a helo come in on County Line Road Friday lunchtime. A couple of families dropped anchor, and within two hours someone had a broken arm...sometimes you don't even need dust to crash. I think the accident happened on their RV circle.

I saw one come in right near the RV park just west of Cahuilla Trail where I was camped. The helo was there a while and it was at night. Way too many emergency vehicles there to be a broken arm, but I'd hope it was only that. I haven't seen anything reported in the news anyway so maybe it was a mild weekend for injuries.

We were driving out there with some of the lights on (during the day) kinda slow and notice the same thing. There would be a group of bike coming the other way, you wouldnt see the first one of two until they were next to us, but the 3 guy or so would be the only one with a head light on. Wouldn't you have that guy in the front of your group?


I also heard from one of the guys working out here this week, that when they were out there last week, some died that was riding in the back of a truck and it rolled, they got tossed out and the truck rolled over them. This was right off wolf well road, in the small hills before holms camp.
