Good Day in the Woods

Post by Bucho » Wed May 10, 2023 4:22 pm

Stephen and Mark came out to help me cut up a large downed tree on the trails.

We made a new line or two.

We kinda meant to go right up over the rock pile. But that proved pretty tricky.

Then rather than cutting out a path out of this entire tree, we cut out a little bit of a “ramp”. Its still offcamber and a little intimidating.

Here is Stephen sending his electric over. I should have snapped the pic a moment later.

I ended up not committing and crashing on a different log. Banged up my knee a little.

Mark ended up with a broken part that side lined his bike. Stephen pulled out his Phoo Tow Rope and I was able to tow Matt back to his truck.

Not a perfect day. But always good to be out in the woods.

Sad that pic wasn't a fraction later. I had perfect send (literally the only one I had today.)

Phil's first attempt.

It was a great day even if I had to be towed in. Thanks for having us Phil.

Great to see you using the logs and not removing all of them

There's been some "weather" this year (as every year) and trails can get out of sorts with just 1 or 2 storms. I'm not far. If you ever need any help, just holler.
