OK, here are the photo's from our September 27 ride! We again attacked Wynn (Winn)
Mountain and again we missed the trail up to the top! Twice in a row, but next time we'll
do it!
Getting started, here I am in
front of my Hummer. It's a 95 white wagon, and with this ride we had both me in my wagon,
and Chris Reilly in his bright white turbo wagon! We looked like twins going down the
trail! Also with us was Dennis Minum in his black gas wagon.
Wadda you mean, the trail is
sloped? If interested that is about a three foot deep hole I've driven into. At one point,
the left rear tire was a few feet off the ground. The Hummer, with its wide stance, loved
it.
Hey, who put this tree here?
Fallen from right to left, there were some scars where someone else had tried to sneak
under. Not us--Chris has a roof rack, and a light bar on his Hummer, and I wasn't going to
try it anyway. Out comes the chain saw (absolutely necessary when running trails here in
Hew Hampshire, where trees grow like grass),
Yep, this should not be a
problem. Honest, I thought the right end was just stuck in the dirt-- Well, I'm not always
right: it had grown on the top of the bank and then fell over in one of our many winter
storms. We could not see a single root until I started winching it out of the way. Then we
could see it was firmly attached at the base!
We stuck on the big chain and
hooked it up to the Hummer's winch. With a bit of groaning, and some time, the end I cut
off was moved over to the other side of the trail. A bit of clean up with the snatch block
moved it all the way to the side of the trail--that tree has claimed it's last victim!
