this was posted on another site, just spreading the word
The Built To Grind Rockcrawlers would like to invite anyone and everyone to the 1st annual Table Mesa area trail cleanup/unstack/campout party. This isn’t the typical cleanup that usually focuses on the shooter areas and general roads. This cleanup will focus entirely on the 4 wheeling trails in the area. Attendees will be split into smaller groups and will concentrate their efforts on a few trails with these goals in mind:
Picking up trash located on the trail. Clean and treat any oil spills encountered on the trail. Unstacking obstacles. Digging out any filled in obstacles.
At the end of the day the groups head back to camp for a potluck dinner and a big campfire. This would be a great opportunity for the different wheeling groups to meet and help improve the trails together while also showing the land management organizations that the 4 wheelers are taking a proactive approach in protecting and maintaining the trails.
When: March 3rd-4th Where: Table Mesa area (main camp directions will be posted later) What’s needed: garbage bags, shovels, gloves and biodegradable oil cleaning supplies.
We will document this event and possibly have media coverage.

I deeply appreciate & personally thank those individuals who take part in the clean-ups. I'm attaching a photo taken Saturday at Raw Deal (Not sure if it will work). Sights like this really take away from the beauty of OUR desert & frankly piss me off!

Glad to hear your up & running again.
We had a lot of fun. Good diverse group with quite a few newbies. 1 stock Xterra (seriously!), 3 stock Rubis, a couple very built rigs & everything in between.
Once we had finished we went onto upper Raw Deal (which I had never run) & beyond. Anybody know what trail (if it's a trail at all) that is if you continue on after the exit of Upper Raw Deal? We took it for awhile but it was getting a bit too much for our group & so we turned around & exited the big rocky hill that ends Upper RD. We couldn't see any sign of recent activity (tire tracks, rubber or scrape marks on rocks etc.) & scouting ahead we found it to only get more & more intense.

Collateral Damage- is unstacked and clean now, and was a fun run. I road with someone in a toy, and understand why so many people build them up. Thinking about using some of my accident money to build one.
And we ran terminator, i dont have any pictures but i know alot of people took some and there was even some video of all of us to.
