Went out to the White Tanks today to test out the new Swampers.  Keith was the only other person who was able to join me, my friend Ken was riding along.  Keith arrived a couple minutes late.  Turns out he got two speeding tickets in under 60 minutes (yes, he was driving a Samurai).

The first trail we ran was Appetizer.

The trail consists of a short wash with a couple rocky sections.

Another rocky section further up the trail.

We explored a few of the side washes, most were dead ends.  This one came to an end at this brushy section.  Ken and I walked about a quarter mile thru the brush and the trail opened up again, but no big obstacles from what we could see.  Might be worth checking out later when it's not so hot.
