In October 2008, from the 12th to 14th, we took a trip to the Fresno Dome area with intentions of camping a couple nights and taking some trails I had not explored.

We headed up Hwy. 41 past Oakhurst and turned on Sky Ranch Rd. and found a nice campsite at Soquel Campground. Here are some scenes from the first afternoon at Soquel and nearby trails.

The second day we headed for the Iron Lakes and Star Lakes OHV Routes. Here are scenes from Forest Roads 5S92, 5S92A and 23E04 - the Iron Lakes Route.

The third and final day, the goal was to conquer the Star Lakes Route, Forest Road 5S26. This is a trail my friend had trouble with back in 2006 when his auto-locking hubs were not working - he has since replaced with a set of Warn manual lockers. Here are some pictures along the Star Lakes Route.
