I know this is short notice, but what a perfect weekend to go wheelin. We will
meet at intersection of I8 and Japatul Rd at 8:30 am and will depart promptly at
9:00 am.
Difficulty Rating 2 to 2+. Directions are below. Hope to see many of my friends
there!

Please have all Required Equipment. http://www.justruns.com/files/dif.htm


Directions to Carvacre Trail (Pancake Rock):

From El Cajon (I8 & 67)

Go east on I8 about 21 miles. At Japatul Rd. (Exit 40) go south approximately
4.5 miles to Lyons Valley Rd. Continue south on Lyons Valley Rd. approximately
4.5 Miles to the entrance to Barret Correction Facility. Air down at the open
area near the entrance. Continue on Lyons Valley Rd. south approximately 1
mile. The trailhead will be a very sharp right as you round a curve.

Caution:

When turning off of Lyons Valley Rd, the trail immediately becomes very rough.
Vehicles need to immediately go into 4 WD as you turn off Lyons Valley Road.
There is only enough room at the trailhead for 2 or 3 vehicles and the trailhead
is in a dangerous curve. Vehicles should be spaced out to avoid problems at the
trailhead. Map Note: There is now a locked gate at the north end of the trail
where it crosses private land before reaching Japatul Road. One must return out
the same way in. I recommend turning around at Pancake Rock rather than
continuing toward Japatul Rd beyond Pancake Rock.
