Yeah the weather was about 65 degrees. There was a closure due to fire risk at 1PM so I had to hit the trails early, I started about 6:45. There was a little bit that was slick, but honestly the logs at Wild Bill I did two weekends ago were slicker.
Amazingly enough I don't see anything on watch duty in the coastal range. Everything is in central and east of there and more in south central Oregon than other areas.
I could be wrong, but the 1 o'clock closures aren't for licensed vehicles.
The camp host said it was all vehicles on the trails, and since it was a holiday weekend they were probably going to have Rangers closing gates and writing tickets so I wasn't taking chances.
Ok, so that more than likely means they are designated OHV trails and not just forest roads.
There are fire roads that are basically dirt roads and sxs and two wheel trails in between so it would be hard to monitor all of it compared to just shutting it down.
Those were a good deal.Took a road trip to get some new-to-me wheels and tires. Made it home this morning after just over 5 days and approaching 4000 miles round trip. I live in Southern Indiana and the wheels were in Western Wyoming.
So first of all...the wheels
Some Hutchinson rock monsters with 315/70r17 Goodyear Duratraks
After getting the wheels loaded up, I headed North thru the Teton park, then into Yellowstone, and finally Beartooth highway, US 212. I did have a few miles of light unpaved trail action but nothing that required the use of even a locker let alone the t-case.
The next day took me to Devil's Tower, Mt. Rushmore, and the Crazyhorse memorial.
It was a great trip. I saw a lot of beautiful scenery.
