I saw at least 17 cars at the bottom there, all piled up before the city dredged Carls in the mid 80's. "Midpits" as it was called, is just to the left to where you labeled it. Sorry to contradict you Buddy, just looking for accuracy.
Also, you can look below Deadmans, however it has been picked by hikers because there is a trail below. I've already been there. I know where to look. My hiking boots are on, it's 7 am, and I'm ready to go hiking. "The early bird catches the worm". If anyone want to join the fray, let's rock and roll. I'll be parked in mid-pits by mid-morning.
I wonder if we sponser Mulholland between Skyline and Bowmont and promise to keep it clean, will they let us have that section for racing 3 nights a year if we sign releases.
You know those tour buses that Jeff mentioned, are all over Mulholland, all day. Why do they always stop across from my house and point? How rude.

Did I not say Carl's? I meant to say Carl's. I thought I said Carl's? Wait....."Chute #1 had some erosion from runoff as the pocket at Carls was a waterfall when it rained" So there! na na na na na!
We could just show up with bright orange trash bags and everyone would think we are performing community service? That way we could put spotters along the course and blend in.
There was still one car below Deadman's about five years ago. It was pretty far down the hill by the trail Chris mentioned. Only about half of it remained above ground. Chris there are two branches to the trail....one goes west parallels Mul and the other goes north then west. Somewhere around the split is that car. It's half buried or more by now.
On the buses I think it was Borgnine getting back at Banning!
