Name: 2026 Mint 400 Desert Clean-Up 🏁
Start: 2026-02-28T17:00:00.000Z
Location: Shell

4x4 off-road drive for beginners and experienced drivers to learn safety, etiquette, and terrain handling across rocky and sandy trails; outcome: improved off-road skills.

Easy 4x4 drive from Via Inspirada to Jean Lake Bed area where we can explore around in the maze of trails, share experience and tips such as safety and trail etiquette which will be discuss at the drivers meeting and along the way. Ending time is a guess.
What makes that run interesting is we go through multiple type of terrains: Rocky ways, sand, up and down hills make this 4x4 drive a good one for new OFFRO4Ders with the desire to acquire knowledge about their vehicle and skills off-roading as well for experts to test their new gears and share experience.

It is 4x4 stock friendly. However, we will air down anyway as we will be traveling through different kind of terrain and because we ***Tread Lightly***. (advantages of airing down will be explained to the new offro4ders).
If you do not have deflators and air pump: **we got you**, no worries.
Ending time is approximate.

We will have lunch at the sand hill or at the quarry which is quiet since it's at the dead end of a trail, away from the lake bed and has awesome views.
Bring your favorite snacks and off the grid lunch, a jacket, shade and chairs as well as **plenty of water to stay hydrated**.\*
\* location for lunch may vary depending timing. (During summer temperatures, lunch time is shorten to less than 30 minutes so we have more time enjoying the A/C in our vehicle).

***Recommended:***
Your best camera: we love seeing your pictures.
