Re: So Cal Jeep Trail Recomendstions
There's a short cut that saves those going east bond on I-8 going
to Calexico on the border with mexico that usually kills ten or so on
the first hot day of summer. If you have a flat tire, your dead in the
time it takes to change to the spare. I remember because one of those
days would Memorial Day when I'd drive the long was around going to San
Felipe, Baja Ha-Ha.

I've seen what happens to alleged professionals caught outside without
shade or water. Not pretty.

I might suggest exiting your vehicle using the *door* feature and
finding (or creating) a shady spot should be the first order of
business. And getting "way out of the typical tracks in a canyon"
alone without being specific in your trip plan is asking for trouble;
staying on popular trails means passersby is a real possibility.
Concerning rescuers, you're thinking two dimensionally. Unlike
forested terrain, the desert is open and visibility is usually
excellent, rescuers could be a half a mile *above* you, and you'd know
it by seeing and hearing their CAP airplane. Forgot to mention a
signal mirror and international orange tarp should be in your emergency
kit; become as visible as possible.
You and Bill (bless his heart) are setting up a strawman, I don't deny
a complete nitwit is at risk of dying in a stuck vehicle incident, I'm
just saying that a modicum of common sense reduces it to an unpleasant
experience.
