Labor Day w/e in AZ

[Symon623]

Well we went up norht for 5 days this w/e wheelin 3 of them, Friday scouted a new trail, Saturday did a popular existing trail, and Sunday had to cut the trip short because of flood potential rains.

Little treat at the end of new trail: turtle creek;

Big fall at teh end of Pyeatt Draw;

On Friday TC Rich and I went out to explore a new wash I been wanbting to checkout for a while. The wash has an actual name but to prevent stackers from finding it we decided to call it something else so about 50 feet in we found this guy and decided to call it turtle creek;

I moved him behind us so we wouldn't run over him;

 

[Symon623]

The spot we found him in was rather tricky cos teh hole was about the size of a 37" tire and undercut;

 

[Symon623]

TC was next tried another approach;

found teh under cut so resorted to my line;

Got a little tipsy;

but got him through

Then Rich's turn;

Another mystery water hole that was a hard bottom and not as deep as thought;

Was denied over there so I moved to the other side of teh rock to come over;

Little too close to teh driveshaft;

but I made it;
