This was house rock, an optional line were the danger was actually sliding off the rocks in the middle of the trail and onto your driveshaft.

Everyone made it thru with driveshaft's intact although Chris did get a lucky break when he just barely cleared one of the rocks with his driveshaft after slipping off.

The trail steadily climbed from here on out with the thick vegetation giving way to more loosely spaced trees.

Another nice spot for a break.

The final climb was above the tree line.

To get to the top of the trail we needed to get across this bog.

There were several existing tracks thru the bog, the rick was finding one that wasn't too waterlogged.

I tried a spot right next to an existing track which did not work out too well.

We eventually all made it past the bog and climbed the last few hills to a very scenic overlook.

While walking around I noticed some ripe blueberries which was pretty amazing considering it was very early in the season and they typically are not ripe for another month or so.

Eventually everyone got picked some for a snack.

Heading back down from the plateau.

I tried a different line across the bog on the way back with the same results as the first time.

We stopped and cooked some dogs at a small clearing we passed on the way in.  Hot food tastes so much better when you are wheeling.

Back at the start of the trail we cleaned the trucks windows and mirrors off using river water and a squeegee to avoid hassles with the local law enforcement.  

I wanted to thank Dan, Kyong and all their friends for showing us a great time.  It was the highlight of our trip.
