There are very few rocks anywhere near the Grandstand
(other than the Grandstand itself). Most of the rocks
are clustered near the south-east end of the playa.
Go visit Dr. Paula Messina's website at:
http://geosun.sjsu.edu/paula/rtp/index.htm
One of the pages shows where the rocks are and their
tracks. She recently indicated to me that water ponding
in recent winters has heavily obscured many of the trails.
When I was on the southern end of the playa earlier this
month I didn't notice any tire tracks, only footprints
from someone out on the playa when they shouldn't have
been.
