Jud...I did many times in the dry season in the early 70's before the rough was irrigated and carts became common...and most cart paths were just dirt trails and not wall to wall. Linksy yes.

Jud;  I played it when it was firm and fast.  1978, only slightly impaired by a little rain in August.  June 1998, dry and relatively windy.  Also played it wet.  Great in all conditions, spectacular when running.  Far more affordable in 1978 but alas, true of most things.
