Hey Croz, as for El Camino you have to get a permit at the BLM office to run it which isn't a big deal, however part of the drive goes through a preserve and it will be closed starting March 15th for a couple of months so the big horn sheep can make babies
Have a great time on the rest of your adventure, wish we could join you but I'll be spending my spring break studying for my mid-term
Be sure to head over to
AZFJ › News when you get here and post up, I'm sure there will be some people who can come out and join ya or show you around at least!!
