It was a bit nippy in the low 30's but otherwise a beautiful day.


There is tons of old mines here.
The dangerous ones are sealed completely off and the ones with something living in them are gated off.




This was it for me on this trail.
I could have pressed on but I was by myself.




This area was burned by the Twitchell Canyon Fire back iun July 2012. Over 33,000 went up in smoke.


What's a ride without a few stream crossings?




I am more than pleased with the overall performance of these Sedona Mud Rebel R/T tires. B)

 

Great pictures, it looks like a blast!

 

Nice pics, Specta.

 

Good pics Specta. I bet millions of bats live in those old mines. It would be cool to watch them come out in summer.

 

Now that's living the life! Thanks for sharing

 

thanks - it is a darn nice place to ride

 

another short ride - we went up Bullion Canyon headed towards Cottonwood Canyon but the snow got too deep just as we had hoped.



Doug's ITP Mud Lite XTRs did way better in the deep snow than my Sedona Mud Rebel R/Ts did which we already knew they would.
His new King Quad also has a little more ground clearance than m Brute Force does which always helps in deep snow.
The Mud Lite XTRs are better in the mud and snow and my R/Ts are a better trail tire.






Bullion Falls - this is where we were headed


From Cascade Falls to Bullion Falls

Bullion Falls



nice little hike back out from Bullion Falls



done for the day and headed back home

 

I like ATVs but the snowmobile will always its place. Where you guys call it quits we call that the starting point.

Nice country.

 

Great pics and video. Good to see Doug back out on the trails with you.

 

thanks Moose - Doug does get out once in a while
