Archers Firebreak and Stick in the Nose in the Tillamook State Forest

I went out with Rich to play around a bit more on Archers Firebreak and get over to Stick in the Nose.

Up in the clouds.  This is a beautiful view when it isn’t all socked in with weather.

Out in a recent clear cut.

Playing around in the mud.

It started to snow on us on one of the ridges.

Playing in the rocks on Stick in the Nose.

Heading down the mountain and back out after a great day in the woods.

A Muddy and Snowy Day on the Barlow Trail

I spent some time mapping the Barlow Trail for Trails Off-Road and got to play around in the mud and snow with my Toyota 4runner.

Heading on through the route where wagon trains once rolled.

Muddy truck means fun truck.

Rich met up with me for the second half of the trail.  We hit snow pretty quick but it didn’t get thick until later.

This old bridge is getting pretty long in the tooth.  I wouldn’t be too surprised if it is condemned in the next year or two.

Beautiful in the snow.

The road won’t be open too much longer this year.  Snow is falling thick and heavy up on top.

First time with a passenger

Yesterday I rode about 92 miles with a passenger.  Emily was a willing test subject to see if I know how to pilot a bike with someone sitting behind me.  We went part way up Marys Peak to where Rich and Greg were with a bunch of other Something Awful goons shooting off massive amounts of ammunition.  I had the opportunity to shoot a couple of different pistols and an AK-74 (I think?).  All were fun.  We were right at the snow line, too.  Rather surreal.  It felt a little like Kosovo.

On the way back into town we decided to do the Kings Valley route.  It was all quite fun!
