I haven't been here for a while so Ithought I had better check in and leave a video or two from a recent ride.

This trail is in a very secluded area and you can tell is seldom traveld. It reaches close to 10,600 ft in elevation.

One awesome little trail!! - YouTube





Here's a picture of the old home that you can see at the end of te video. My ATV is parked by those pine trees on the closest ridge behind the house. The home was constructed of cut lumber and was a two story home at one time and located high on the mountain. The family who lived there had several mines in the area.

I have never seen another person on this trail that goes back into Chicken Creek Canyon. Very isolated, very beautiful and surrounded by the tallest mountain peaks in the area.

Specta, I want to thank you for your excellent pics and encouragement for people to come visit your home area. I showed this thread of your pics to another couple and they were so impressed with them that we decided to make the 1,000 mile trek to Utah to visit the Paiute Trails in early September.
