    Rosamond (AV) Cleanup {NEW}

    I tried to reply to the "Rosamond (AV) Cleanup" thread but it's over 128 days old and the system would not let me reply to that thread...

    Well, looks like there's some "F***ed" up S*** happening out in this area of Rosamond, on the public roads.

    My neighbor went out there this past weekend to do a little shooting in that general area but not at the posted "No Trespassing" area. As he was driving out on the public dirt roads he hit a patch of "tacks" (lack of a better word) that was scattered all over this section of road. Once he noticed these 'tacks' it was way to late. His front tires took most of the 'tacks' but his rear tires got them too. He stopped the car in the road and looked on the ground. He told me that there was 100's if not 1000's of 'tacks' all over the road. He was able to back the car out the 'tacks' and he made it home (we live in Rosamond).

    He called Kern County Sheriff Office and made a report of the incident. The Sheriff's Office told him that he was not the only one to report this. The Sheriff's Office told him that 3 Sheriff's cars and at least 6 POV have hit these 'tacks' in that area on the road. The Sheriff's Office already launched a full blown investigation to find out who is doing this.

    Here's a few pictures of his tires...

    He has to replace all 4 tires at a cost of about $600... That's a nice new gun now it will be tires...

    Yeah, my father and I went out last month and he ended up with 2 flats in front. We tried to pick some up but those things are everywhere.

      What road were you on?

      I ask because my friend owns the Gravel Pit on Rattlesnake Road and if it is in that area, he may be interested in knowing about it.

      I personally would love to own the equipment to be able dig large holes in the desert.

      If you haven't seen it with your own eyes,
      or heard it with your own ears,
      don't make it up with your small mind,
      or spread it with your big mouth.

            Okay, the area is known as Rattlesnake Rd. It is or was a very popular, well known shooting area out in Rosamond. The general location is West of the 14, between Rosamond Blvd and Dawn Rd. Google Earth Lat and Long...about 34*N53'23.31" and 118*W11'15.58"

              Well that is not a good thing at all. I know there has been major problems out there with people leave massive amounts of trash and a dead cow or two out there...

                While probably not the road, but I thought most of that area was private owned.

                    Did you report this to the Kern County Sheriff or the Mojave CHP office?

                      No, from what I hear around town, the owner is about to get his pants sued off of him. 30+ cars have received flats from out there.

                        You should have reported it but that's your call.

                        30+ DAMN! That's crazy! Do you know who owns this area? Is it owned by the Landsgard's (spelling?) I heard it was but just rumors and I never went to talk to Eric Landsgard over at Karl's Hardware in Rosamond or Mojave.

                          That is what I hear that the guy from Karl's Hardware owns that land or something like that.

                              I'm glad I haven't gone there in a while. I live on the east side so I started going somewhere closer to home. I haven't heard anything about this until now, but I'll be sure to let my friends know. Are we going to attempt a cleanup, or are we just going to wait and see if the guy gets in trouble?
