Um, yea. I think I would have to decline your offer, thanks though

Actually that cabin isn't too bad, it's pretty much on a main trail. I still wouldn't want to stay there. On the other hand the cabin in the next pictures I'm going to post (tonight), is super creepy. It's way out in the middle of nowhere, I didn't even go in it because I thought there just might be someone living in the thing.

Thanks! It's definatly a beautiful place to be, or visit. Pictures really don't do justice of the area.

The camera is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS80, it was only about $150.00. I am pretty impressed with how well it works.

Me too! A little remodel and a garage and you would be set. It would even come with a cut up car Winter might be a little rough though, better plan on getting a snowcat

More pictures coming up...

The girlfriend and I decided to go check out a small side trail that I've known about but never been that far up. As before, we got rained on but it was still a great time. I can't believe I never checked it out before, it's one of my new favorites

The camera batteries were acting up at the beginning of the trail, but you drive through a river/lake, go past a couple old cabins and head up the trail



It started raining pretty hard so I didn't take any pictures until last part of the trail, but I did get a bunch on the way down

I found this old dumptruck and cabin toward the top of the trail, along with some other stuff.

On Sunday I went up and checked out Webster pass and Radical hill. There's still too much snow to go all the way on either trail but maybe in a week or two.

Webster Pass

Here's the big snow bank on Webster Pass, with a random Jeep parked on it.

Here is looking at Webster Pass / Red Cone from Radical Hill



And here was the end of the trail. If I had some better tires I could have gone further but there was just another masive snow bank past this one.

This was the next snow bank! There were a couple ATV tracks on it but they were older, the snow is at least 5'-7' deep.



Looking up above the truck



Couple more of Red Cone
