Directions to Ron, K6WLC 's
Place in Ventura County
 
Get on Interstate 5 FWY and proceed to the towns of Gorman, if going
North, and Lebec, if going South, (check your maps).
 
Take the Frazier Park turn off just north of Gorman and just south of
Grapevine and Lebec. The Frazier Park turn off is about 75 miles north of
LA and about 45 miles south of Bakersfield.
TAKE THE FRAZIER PARK OFF RAMP AND GO WEST ON FRAZIER PARK RD.
(Make note of your odometer reading.)
 
The Flying J Inn is at this off ramp. Many people from the group will be
staying here.
 
Stay on the main road (follow the yellow line) go past Frazier Park.
 
Go past the stop sign with the blinking red light--go straight.
 
Go Past Mt. Pinos Rd. and Lakewood Rd.
 
After about 7 miles from the FWY exit you will come to Lake of the Woods 
(don't be fooled there is no lake that I could see).  There is a large
wooden sign on the right indicating Mt. Pinos is straight ahead and the
Ranger Station and Lockwood Valley are to the Left.
Look for the gray two story building on the far left corner of the
intersection. This is Mt. View Minimart and Deli.
TURN LEFT at this intersection. This is Lockwood Valley Rd. 
 
You will stay on this road till Ron's private road turn off. (Make note
of the odometer reading.)
This is a good road, two lane double yellow line, but it is a windy
mountain road. Pay particular attention to the road warning signs. If a
turn is coming and the speed warning is 25 miles an hour, adhere to that;
they do not exaggerate, get that speed down to near 25. Some people
highly familiar with the road may want to go faster and desire to pass
you.  Move over as much as you can to the right without going onto the
dirt shoulder and let them pick a safe time to go by.
 
 
Go by the Sand and Rock quarry on the left. This should be about 5 miles
from the turn on to Lockwood Valley Rd. Keep going.
 
You will come to a summit with a beautiful valley in front of you. This
should be about 6 miles from the turn on to Lockwood Valley Rd.
 
At mile 7, as you come down into the valley, you will come to Conover
Private airstrip on the right.  Keep going you are almost there.
 
You will see a mountain in front of you and a road off to the right to
Lockwood air Park. Keep going Ron's place is just around the corner. It
is a turnoff to the right. Reduce your speed so you don't miss it.
 
As you go around the mountain you will see some mailboxes and signs for a
road off to the right this is about 7.8 miles since turning onto Lockwood
Valley Rd.
This is it. Greenleaf Springs Road. 
 
TURN RIGHT ONTO GREENLEAF SPRINGS ROAD it is a GRAVEL ROAD. GO SLOW. Look
over your right shoulder you will see lots of antennas. The red building
with the three white garage doors is Ron's. 


So...NO EXCUSE NOW. Hope to see you all there.
