The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 He trained all over the Anza Borrego Desert. Was not uncommon to see tracks in the dirt, and find 50 BMG cases. The trails they 'cut', made for some great Jeep'n. This was near HWY 86 and SR22 at Salton City. Very impressive museum. OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Hangtree Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 They used to have a very good museum at Ft. Knox for General Patton. It was great the last time I was there in the late 60's. Hope it's still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Wilson Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 When I used to go wheelin' in my Jeep Wrangler, a bunch of us stopped there before heading off road. Very interesting museum with lots of really cool stuff, especially all the tanks parked outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Been there a number of time traveling between Ontario, CA and Prescott Valley, AZ. It's worth the stop and you can still go off road for miles in every direction.and see a lot of evidence that Patton's People had been there. Watch out for rattlesnakes. They love shade that all the outdoor displays provide. If you're headed east there's a great Mexican and American homestyle cafe about halfway through the town of Quartzsite on the north side of the main street. I don't recall the name but it's easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
