Exploring Mineral Mt breath taking vistas-scenic Box Canyon. Can I get the Villain up the waterfall?
Dean & Ken in a Razor, & me in the Villain, head into the Mineral Mountain area looking for the Box Canyon Ledge/waterfall. Will we be able to climb to the top or break something? None of us have been here before but we did a lot of research with Google's help. On the way in we stopped to admire the petroglyphs on the Cottonwood trail. The vistas from the Mineral Mountain ridge tops made us stop to take in the beauty. Trails everywhere below us.
Did you know Canadian men stop and ask directions? We met lots of helpful people who actually knew where we wanted to go. There are many ways into Box Canyon. This is the adrenalin way in. Our research paid off - we made the right choice. But can we climb the waterfall/Box Canyon Ledge?
• How to get to Mineral Mountain OHV parking. Coordinates: 33.26211, -111.27551
Go east on Hwy 60 out of Gold Canyon. The Mineral Mountain OHV parking is on the right ~4.2 miles after the Hwy 79 exit to Florence.
• Map:
Here's the link to the track in case you want to try this ride yourself. It's about 28 miles r/t. Depends on how many times you miss a turn!
webmap.onxmaps.com/offroad/share/content?share_id=01JCXN9536M872KFGDD45AC3KE
• General trail directions (trail signs are rare):
1. Start at Mineral Mountain HOV parking area (Coordinates: 33.26211, -111.27551) off Hwy 60
2. Take a right out of the parking lot on Mineral Mountain Road
3. Right onto Cottonwood Canyon to the Petroglyphs on the right - not well marked - follow the trail into the wash
4. Make a U-turn and go back to Mineral Mountain Road.
5. Take a right on Five Point
6. At a junction of at least 3 trails, take a right to Box Canyon. There is a sign. This will get you on the ridge tops with great views and takes you into Box Canyon
7. East Cottonwood Canyon/BLM6110-T
8. We found Box Canyon Ledge/waterfall & continued back to the parking lot from above on BLM6110/NW2003/Mineral Mt Road
9. Then Upper Woodpecker back to the way we came in on Mineral Mountain Road

    Box Canyon is great. For those who want a quicker route, stage on Price Road. If y’all haven’t checked out Montana Mountain, which starts on the other side of the 60, definitely do it. In the winter you might even find snow up there.

    Time for new tires. I was lucky enough to find some System3 350s locally (exactly what I wanted) for half price barely used. The factory tires are great in dirt but have a lot of vulnerable areas in sharp rocks. As for the waterfall climb... I think you forgot the fact you have a locking diff. You'd have walked right up that stuff if it was engaged, I'm gunna bet. Its getting colder here... You're lucky to still be adventuring without bundling up!

    The stock tires are perfect for that sandy, rutted dirt. I've thought about it and I think I'd rather have a big quad rather than a narrow trail SxS. Those trail models are just too tipsy. In fact, on my last trip a few days ago I came upon a rolled trail model of some kind where a teenage girl had hit an unexpected wash-out (following better machines) and didn't really have the skills to deal with it. Everyone seemed mostly OK and they didn't need my help but I mean, on a quad you could have just stood up a bit and soaked up the bump.

    I'm in Payson and have been wondering if there's a club or group that goes on regular rides, or even rallies. Would love to join you guys in my Ranger XD 1500!!! I've been on this ride once, and really loved it. My favorite part was just before the water crossing. The boulder, literally as big as a house, that fell off the mountainside and landed next to the trail (and the trail has to go around it) was super impressive. I was awed by it and the other large boulders that had broken free and tumbled down the mountain. The nature on this ride is way cool.

    I ride alone. No dust. But of course one of these days I'm going to break something and hike out of the desert, so I keep a lot more emergency stuff in the little back trunk than most people. Gotta think about food, water, warmth, and the ability to carry it all. I notice most of the people in your group are retired. I'm getting up there myself and I notice a lot of ATV drivers are too. At first I thought it was a sport for those darn whipper snapper punk kids, but apparently not! I guess the machines are now too expensive and nice. When I was a kid, quads certainly didnt cost 10 grand! So regarding cameras, I saw a 360 spherical cam sticking up from your car in one shot but all your footage was from a hand-held. You mentioned you got a new camera, and I was hoping the 360 was it. They're great for this kind of filming. Or an action camera with super stabilizing abilities like the Insta360 etc. Less shaky-cam, if any. You can see how my videos turn out on my channel www.youtube.com/@herbf2700 using an Insta360 Go3 (in-car hand-held or dash-cam positions) and the Insta360 X4 (on a long stick or mount on the roll bar allowing 'look around' scenes) and once in a while a drone shot. Of course, I'm a bit of a camera nerd and they can get $$$ over time hehe.

    How is that 12 inch light attached near front bumper?

    • @DesertVillain
      @DesertVillain Місяць тому

      Larry was the key to this install. He has a tool called a nutsert. It's similar to a rivet tool. Instead of inserting a normal rivet it's a threaded rivet.

      @@DesertVillain ok great! I found on Amazon. Are the nutserts in the bumper tube or some wee else? Did he find which 12inch light bar on Amazon?

    • @DesertVillain

      The light is listed in the "Details" for the video. Here is the Amazon link to make it easier for you to find: www.amazon.com/dp/B00WE46ZWC?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Drill the holes for the nutserts into the top of the bumper at the angle that gives you the best light for how you like to drive.

    Does it take 1/4 inch rope? Are you keeping the roller fairlead or changing to hawse?

    • @DesertVillain
      @DesertVillain Місяць тому

      Only changed to 1/4" rope so far.

    I've been wondering if I want to do this. Only for winter. I'd want to take them off again in the summer-- Do you have to take it all apart to do that, or is it a matter of 6 bolts and you're done once the brackets are on?

    • @DesertVillain
      @DesertVillain Місяць тому

      It's a complete reversal of the install. The brackets will be a hazard if you don't remove them. I don't know the cost of a second set of doors but that would only involve 2 bolts for each door.

      @DesertVillain Місяць тому

      Unfortunately, this rope was gift to Larry from his son. I think it was purchased on Amazon. If you check out my video, "Our Villains need accessories. One is configured with a small budget, the other - what's a budget?", you will find a list/links of the items I have added. I don't have a list for Larry, but I can find out from Larry if there is an item someone is interested in. Thanks for watching & commenting!

    Your so right about the heat in the cab, my rzr is unbearable with a windshield on. I took it off and have a half windshield and removed the rear side panels on the doors on both side to let some air flow through, was a big improvement. Stock suspension on all side-by-sides i just adequate, the manufactures dont know who is going to purchase and drive their machines. A 130lb driver and 90lb passenger or a 300lb driver and 200lb passenger so the springs and shock valving is a compromise and the ride is not as plush as it could be. Best thing I did to make the long rides on these rocky trails here in Arizona more enjoyable and less tiring was to drive over to Shock Therapy and have them re-valve my shocks and to put their custom springs on my rzr. I am in your age group and I wanted them to make the ride more plush at lower speeds on these rough trails. So I told them what I wanted. What a difference! and to further make the ride more plush I removed the front sway bar links and installed Walker Evans sway bar shock links, that helped a lot with the transfer of hits from side to side. And to finish the suspension I put a Super ATV sway bar shock link on one side of the trailing arm to soak up the hits. A huge difference in ride quality. I really didn't want to pay that much to have it done but once out on the trails I am happy I bit the bullet and had it done.

    • @DesertVillain
