[edit] Unreliable sources

I know that many of the references I've added are not reliable. That is why I added so many. By showing the quantity of unrelated sources, I intend on demonstrating that there is some degree of interest in the article's topic. Then, if I can find anything reliable, I will replace the unreliable sources. -- Kainaw^(what?) 02:52, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

It has been 6 months. The existing refs have not been challenged. So, I removed the "lack of citations" banner. I would still like better citations for the article, but they are very difficult to find. Libraries don't tend to keep copies of old Transworld Skateboarding and Thrasher magazines or the old Bones Brigade videos. -- kainaw™ 02:12, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Location

I followed the path I remember taking using Google and Yahoo maps. I believe the Nude Bowl was located just up the mountain, west off the end of Pierson Blvd, north of Palm Springs, west of Desert Hot Springs. Currently, Google shows heavy development in the entire area. Yahoo shows nothing there. Can anyone verify that this is the correct location? If it spurs anyone's memory, I was living in 29 Palms at the time. I headed west on 29 Palms Hwy. After coming down the grate and passing Indian Blvd, I continued until I saw a large white cylinder to the west of the road (which I believe was water storage). I turned right, passed a few houses on the left, and continued straight off the end of the road into the desert and up the mountain. After passing an old iron gate, the nude bowl was further up the mountain on the left. You could take a steep runoff straight to it or circle around the back on an easier to handle road. That's all I remember. I can't find any coordinates or descriptions of the actual location online. -- kainaw™ 02:07, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
