Here we all are stopped at a wide clearing with
2 or three ways to go. YotaKiller and a friend headed out on ATV's to scout
us a route. They came back and told us to fire up and follow them. They
found us a doozy. I didn't get any digital pics of the next obstacle because
I was too busy video taping it. Soon I'll have a sort of animated gif of
our rigs descending the hill. |
| This is the view off the mountain looking to
the right (in the pic above). Out and a little to the left would be Deer
Park. It looked like mountains and forest to me! |
 |

After descending the
hill we headed up more mountain top. We had to move some large trees
before this path was open. It doesn't look very bad, but it was kind of
steep. |
| This ended up being as high as we could find
trails to climb. Everyone found a stump to park up on (well, almost all),
and everyone stood around and gawked for some time. The next pic is a shot
from the other way, pretty interesting isn't it. |

How'd he get up there? Convienient stumps, not? |
| All that was between this mountain top, and Mount
Spokane seemed to be a couple of ridges. It looks simple from up here! |
 |
 |
Two pictures up, if he would turn around he'd
be looking down this slope. This was reall steep and off camber in a few
places. I wouldn't want to try this in much snow or ice... you'd stop at
the bottom though, just which bottom is uncertain. It was steep! |
| That about does it. After returning home around
3PM, my son who didn't make it that morning said he wanted to go to 7
Mile ORV area. I said OK, but I had to go grease up the u-joints. I
heard a distinct squeakyness during the morning. This is what I found,
the right front spindle joint had spit out a bearingh cap. I discovered
later that both the spindle and axel yoke where shot, bent to much. And
much to my dismay, THAT wasn't the squeaky! Main Driveshaft awaiting pay
day as I type! |
