also, FYI...
Forest Grove District OHV Trails
Browns Camp OHV Area:
#1 Rogers Camp Road and #2 Firebreak One trails are periodically closed on weekdays due to logging activity. Click here to see PDF map of closure area
#3 Crooked Bridge Trail is temporarily closed to repair damaged trail sections and to add a new section of Crooked Bridge Trail that will connect Crooked Bridge Trail with Rogers Camp Road Trail. The contractor is working on repairs and construction of the new trail segment. The work is expected to be complete this fall or winter and the trail is expected to open by spring 2009 . Respecting this trail closure will allow the contractor to more quickly complete the work and open the trail.
#8 Julie's Trail is temporarily closed to prevent further impacts to the trail, to minimize erosion and impacts to water quality and to repair significantly damaged sections of the trail. Repairs will be completed by a contractor and are currently scheduled to take place during late summer and fall 2008. The trail will re-open when the repair work is complete. Respecting this trail closure will allow us to more quickly repair the damage and open the trail.
#10 University Fire Power Trail- The section of the trail between Beaver Dam Road and University Falls Road is temporarily closed due to winter storm damage. An old puncheon culvert was damaged and the trail over the old puncheon culvert is eroded to the point that it is impassable to all vehicle traffic. A new culvert will need to be installed. No timeline has been set for repair work. The rest of University Firepower Trail is open.
#12 Gummy Worm Trail. The section of trail from the first road crossing west to the end of the trail is temporarily closed for repair and upgrade work. The trail has been adopted by the Trailsmen Motorcycle Club. The club and the Oregon Department of Forestry are working together to complete the repair and maintenance work. The club recently completed work on the first section of the trail from Beaver Dam Road to the first road crossing and it is now open to use. Additional work is required on the rest of the trail.
#16d Airplane Hill Trail. A segment of the Airplane Hill Trail has been significantly damaged and is no longer sustainable. The damaged segment will be redesigned to maintain the challenge and to make the trail sustainable. The Oregon Department of Forestry is working with the Cascade Cruisers four-wheel drive club to redesign and repair the trail. Design work is in progress and work will begin in fall 2008. The trail will remain closed until the repair work is complete. The trail is expected to re-open in spring or summer 2009.

Sweet! i really want to learn to drive stick. but no one is willing to let me grind down there clutch a little but in order for me to learn.
and in regaurds to the knitting needles....you never know when you'll need a pair of knitting needles. imagine if we get a freak snow storm and everyone is wearing shorts and tank tops? i'll can come to the resuce and knit everyone some hats and scarfs and leg warmers and stuff.

everytime i get out of troy's truck after we play in the mud i get a line of mud across the back of my legs. it never fails. I have tried jumping from the truck and just trying to be really careful....it never works.

i have one concern..... will there be beer and/or other alcohol?
I don't want to be the only up there enjoying a few beers after a long day of wheeling...
In other words...i don't like to drink alone...
