...good times!
 
Great pictures! Thanks to Matt, Jes, and Dave for letting me drive their rigs. And thanks to Andy and Lisa for letting all of us stay at their place.

Good times indeed. :cheers:
 
We had a great weekend, both the wheeling and hanging out with friends. Thanks again to Andy for letting us all hang out at his place. And thanks to Andy and Jes for scouting out the Spangler Hills and finding and building Snake Bait.

After running Snake Bait, we checked out some other canyons. We found a good one and Porch Puppy, FarmerMatt and I ran it to the top, then hunted around to find an out. We found a single track trail along the ridge that lead to a canyon we could go down, so we named the trail Windy Ridge. I don't think anyone got any pics of it, but it's a real good trail. That area is going to have some good trails, and it's nice because it's close to town.

I can't wait to get back over there and open up URF Canyon. :D
 
URF Canyon is going to be an awesome trail. Can't stop thinking about it, really want to get back out there and build/run it. :cool:
Too bad it's gonna be 100+ out there soon.

Here's a couple of my shots. More too come, but Flickr is not cooperating right now. The new wide-angle lens made shooting in the 'Snake Pit' a whole different experience.

Oh, and I thought 'Windy Ridge' was renamed 'Lost and Found'? ;)
