I stopped by there today to do a little crawlin on the way to cashmere......
Not happening
The first crossing had a road block and was under cut at the far left side where we were running up to the tree, 2 of the 3 trees that were there are gone ,there is 5 or so tress been fell and cut. All the large rocks at the base are gone. ther is smaller football sized rocks over the entire road,the good part is that there was no running water in the creek bed.........SO I decided to go around the barrier and check the second crossing...
Even worse
The RIVER had forked at the crossing and was going down each side not even in the original bed. Even more debris on the road (couldnt cross that one) O yeah did I mention the RIVER. It was flowing pretty hard at that crossing.
I hope that the state cleans it up or we may be waiting until the snow melts and they prep it for next camping season.

Mike and I were talking about a waterhole/rope swing that is up in box canyon that happens to be on a giant slab of rock. We thought might be worth crawling at the last comp. I headed up 90 to Stampede pass/LK Kaches and into box canyon. It was as we remembered and I spent a hour crawling around. It was cold and a few flurrys from the tops of the hills blew by but it was a blast. If we did anything up there it would have to be in the summer and the courses would be long (spread out). It was a blast. I got to check out my lastest 2.2 against the clod 2.2 that was cool. Now I have to decide wich one to run in the comps>>>>>
If you get a chance to before the snows hit check it out it is a fun place.
