LVMC trip with 8 folks. I've taken the north canyon (L) route to McFarland at least 10x, and this was my 4th time coming down the N McF ridge. My main aim is to report on road conditions. My current preferred route is from the fenced ATV parking. The original HikingLasVegas road (reportedly) has a deep washout (which can be circumvented by taking a connector from Mud Springs Road.).
