Great, Great pix guys. I have to admit, I had so much fun looking through them that they inspired me to “build” my own album in Yahoo’s briefcase. At least that’s how it started. Actually I have so many photos stashed on my hard drive I’m having to create several albums so I can really appreciate the work you guys went through to put this together. It’s VERY time consuming. But what the hell, what good are the pix if you can’t share and enjoy them with appreciative others?

So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen (you know who you are), may I present to you Greg & Karen's Trail Albums. This is a “work in progress” and will likely include some new pictures after each of our rides. I’ll also post the Reverse Override instruction document in the Folder section for public access. And anything else I find pertinent to our sport. Enjoy!

Thanks for the “thumbs up” guys. I too hope more of this forum’s contributors will share their ATVing pix with us. The printed word is so one-dimensional; the pix really add a lot to “flesh out” who we are and what we enjoy. For those of us here who enjoy civil, informative, friendly interaction the pictures are icing on the cake.

"Wow", That max story was hard core. Way to hold it all together, "Thumbs up".I know cold, But I don't know that cold.
Next time, I'd carry road flares on my person.
PS. Still not buying the max over the falls thow.

While every word of the Max-ident story is the painful truth, you got me on the Max-over-the-falls pix. I was just wasting time and having a little fun with “Picture It” one day, to see what it could do I put those together. They are surprisingly close to looking real but you’re right, they’re fake. I’ve had some fun with them though.

One of the ironies in the Max-ident was I had everything aboard we would have needed to comfortably survive and event like that. Even a small inflatable raft with paddles we could have used to get back across the river. But it was all lost when we were separated from the machine. That year for X-mas, which was only two weeks later, I gave each of the participants windproof, waterproof lighters as a celebration of our survival. I also gave them a little vacuum sealed pack with stick matches and a “fire stick” (easily startable kindling) in it as a “failsafe”.

FLOODRUNNER;as you say,sad tail but true.Here in the moutains alot of people are killed because they aren't preprared,or have no survival skills.They seem to think it'll never happen to me.It's so easy to get lost flatlanders have no Idea how vast this area is here,you were able to walk to civilation.Where as here it's not always that easy.The only thing was happy ending to sad tail,your lucky to be able to relate it.WE don't have so mugh trouble getting separated on quads,but snowmobiles it can happen quick.At 60-70 miles an hour you can lose someone fast.We all carry radios for such times.Everyone should read that and see how easy things happen.LATER COB
