I am going to run Log Corral this coming Saturday 10/6 from the Beeline highway side. I can never figure how to cross the Verde once I get to the river. Any info on how to find the crossing would be aprreciated, OR, if you want to join the run, meet at the gas station by the Fort McDowell Casino on the Beeline at 9:00 am. I am running a VERY VERY built 1973 Scout 11, although the only thing Scout on it any more is the grill. The other vehicle so far on the run is a 1971 Blazer as well. Hopefully some jeepers will join us, and show us the way.

Here is a Topo of the crossing:

Fun trail, I can't make it though. I will say the crossing is a bit tricky, basically you keep heading down river until you find an opening in the trees, lol. :)

Got any other pic's of your Scout ? I have a '72 SII.

OK, I plan on meeting you at 9AM at the station but don't wait for me, I am usually never late. :D

I have done the river crossing once and it is hard to find and I don't have it on my GPS.

Here are a couple pics of the crossing. :rolleyes:
