    I've done the Madjeska Grade to Old camp many times, as I live only a couple
    miles from there.
    However Joplin, the route that is on the topo would be a killer. You are
    correct in saying it would be an advanced trail, if for no other reason due
    to the high degree of cario shape needed.
    However, now that I have a topo and description, Joplin trail will get
    ridden somtime in the next couple months... At least it's close to
    home... ( must get in better shape.......)

    The Modjeska Grade is the paved road that runs from Santiago Canyon
    Road over the ridge and down into Modjeska Canyon and is a common
    misnomer for the Santiago Truck Trail. The Santiago Truck Trail is
    what runs up to Old Camp.

    If you don't like poison oak, you may want to skip Joplin because there
    is a lot of it up there. Luckily, I'm immune to it.

    Thanks for the correction, I've been calling it the wrong name for a few
    years....
    Poison oak doesn't bother me, a good shower and most of it's gone. Last time
    I had it was when i fell into a large bush and flailed around to get out.
    This is just part of OC riding...

    I've been running around up in the Santa Anas most of my life, even on
    visits when I lived elsewhere. Stuff like that misnomer gets passed on
    by people who just don't know.

    Poison Oak part of California riding at lower elevations in non-desert
    locations. The Umpqua River Trail in Oregon is notorious for it. Some
    people get it worse than others do. I can trample around in it all day
    and not a spot. A friend I grew up with would break out if someone
    even mentioned it.

    I wonder if Poison Oak has the same chemical as Poison Ivy (the east
    coast itchy weed)? I am immune to poison ivy.

    I was immune to PI all my life up until last year. I got my first case of PI
    all up my left arm. Don't ever say that you are "immune" to it. I once had
    the same thought...

    Jim gets a bad case of PI nearly every (and sometimes a couple times a
    year). It gets bad around here on some trails that they are not even
    rideable because of the amount PI growth.

  14. Growing up in North Carolina, I would go through the stuff all the time
    with never a worry. Then about two years ago I got a good case of the
    stuff after trampling through a bunch of it with already scraped up
    legs. I do not know if oil contacting a wound was the trigger, but
    ever since then I am sensitive to the stuff. Ivy Block before, Tecnu
    after, and at the first sign of any itching I use Zenfal.

    I know. Used to be as rare as a Sasquatch sighting.

    Wait a second....

  16. The more you are exposed to PI the less your immunity...

    I cleaned out the yard this weekend and the paranoia was there...
    I am stupid for not putting on some Ivy block just in case.

    I never got PI growing up in Michigan and even pulling it out of our
    yard with bare hands.

    Then I went on a few Rides in CA a few years ago and must have come in
    contact with some PO. My skin basically melted. Very unpleasant. You
    have been warned.

    Very nice. Skiing's almost done here (lift-served anyway), so I'm
    turning my thoughts back to cycling again. Yippee!
