Father's Day Run
Saturday June 20th, 2009
On Friday June 19th, 2009 we headed up FS1701 to set up camp at the FS530 intersection.
A few guys came up the night before.
While we waited for the others to show up, we ran down to Tripod Flats to make sure the trail was open.
It rained hard.
We headed back to camp where others were showing up.
Scuba had a good fire going for us and even had some shelter to keep us dry.
On Saturday morning we headed out with 10 rigs.
We headed up FS1701 and then turn on 4W694.
We stopped at the Manastash Vista.
Next we headed on past Funny Rocks to 4W307.
On down 4W307 we stopped for lunch at Tripod Flats.
After lunch we headed on down 4W307 and then run up 4W311.
We had to stop near the top of the ridge to wait for a rig that was over heating.
Here is a nice steep drop off.

Here we missed the 4W311 sign and had to turn around.
Regrouping.
We just had run through a nice tight area.

Around 3:45 PM we came up on a group of people off the trail.
Some of the rigs were full size and did not belong on this trail because the trail is one of the few that is not wide enough.
Some of the guys in the back of a cut off Suburban were yelling "F" words at us and seemed to be drunk.
As we headed on toward the top end of the trail, right around the corner we smelled fresh evergreen.
These guys had damaged trees coming through.
On down the trail we came up on a big tree that just had been cut down.
Our members said they saw wood that matched the tree in one of the rigs.
On down the trail.
Waycrazy
Here is a big rock in the trail.
