Anybody heading up this weekend ?? Snow??

DEER TICK · 11-04-2011, 04:24 PM

Have plans to,but they might be changing after looking at the forecast.

SlamBone · 11-04-2011, 04:41 PM

Im thinking of going just for the day

brownhunter · 11-04-2011, 08:07 PM

You gunna let a few inches of snow stop ya?

SlamBone · 11-05-2011, 07:17 AM

The snow is not my worry. Comming home down the mountain with a 33' gooseneck with two rigs on it in possible snow was my concern.

/\ This. That's the only thing that worries me.Towing in a storm,around a bunch of fawkers that don't know how to drive.

Spent the weekend up there and went in Friday night. Made it a little ways past milemarker 4.5. Snow was getting deeper and trail was getting tougher to make good progress. In good judgement, we decided to turn around and head back to Eagle lakes and camp there. The off camber spot was very sketch. We had to pull cable to keep from falling off it.

A few pics.

Friday night.

Saturday morning.

Driveline Hill shenanigans from Saturday night.

This morning.

We went up to Fordyce Lake and spent the weekend. Did a night run to Winch Hill 3 but got no pics.

Some pics around camp:

Good times up there for sure! The drive home was sketchy.
