Chapter 36- Scorched Earth

[DaTank]

The drive from Boulder, Colorado to Fort Irwin even possible with the routes that were taken?

The drive from Boulder, Colorado to Fort Irwin even possible with the routes that were taken?

Sure, Check THIS, the Boulder impact analysis that Cabbage Patch did for "It Only Takes One."

From the rendezvous point at/near Genesee Park, follow I-70 West... Just a bit South-West of central Utah, I-70 ends ("T's off") at I-15. Follow I-15 South to Exit 189 in California. That's Fort Irwin Road.

That's the direct and easy to follow route, though I think it would be likely that the evacuation convoy would have gone cross country directly to Irwin from the Baker area. The only point of consequence is that I-15 runs right through the heart of Las Vegas...



(Though while checking this out, I learned that Nellis AFB in Vegas has, among other aircraft, A-10's... hey Chief Muldoon, how do you feel about fixed wing?)

Something tells me Muldoon likes the maneuverability of the rotary more. Although, the A10 might fly slow enough for his liking. And we know how much Robbins likes the M234 so I bet he would fall in love with the 30mm cannon on the Warthog....

Hey Kc, I bet you could do some amazing sound work with an A-10... <wink wink> <nudge nudge> Know what I mean?

I have now listened to the series twice and I can say I am grateful that this is the season finale. The story is at a great point I think this chapter did a great job of concluding a lot of plot lines and setting up the final season! Great episode, great battle, and a great show!

There is a trail that goes from Baker, CA onto the Fort Irwin reservation. But then you have to traverse the entire length of "the Box" to get to the base, which is all poorly maintained dirt trails through desert and mountains. I wouldn't recommend it unless you have a 4WD vehicle, a driver experienced in driving in the desert, and a good map.

Here's a picture of a Bradley Fighting Vehicle on the ground at Fort Irwin. That hilly terrain with scrub growth is pretty typical of the entire region.

Glad they brought back everyone together, best moment of the chapter. I'm sure I'm not the only one who agrees that IT'S ABOUT TIME that they decided to go on the offensive. The Suit and his numbered children are in for a hell of a fight.

I've been nursing episodes of WA since I found out about it back in September 2012. I've been dreading this day, but I just finished the finale for Season 3. I'm happy to say that I'm caught up and can post with the rest of the forum when Season 4 starts... but that means that I have to wait till Season 4 starts...

To Kc Wayland & the WA Crew - AWESOME JOB so far! But seriously, KC, end the prohibition now. We've been dried out too long. Let season 4 flow! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!

Well, now that you're all caught up go back and guzzle the whole show again like Bill with a new bottle of Sailor Jerry!

I honestly hope they don't end up killing CJ in this next season or at least let her keep her legs and would really love to see what Hope can do when she gets her eyesight back.
