The joy of checking out wheeling areas

[AintNoFantasy]

i liked that first pic with the sign so much, its my background now.

I 2nd that....Alberta really sucks for 4 wheelin, I am originally from Northern Ontario where there is more forest than tarmack....My move to alberta has been disapointing in that respect. I REALLY miss the serenity of the road less travelled.

The world needs more "Four wheel drive vehicle only" signs.

That looks sweet. I need to find a place like that round here. There's several similar in the Adirondaks but none that I know of that are drive-ins.

that would be a great sign to hang in my garage!

 

[DarkFox1]

no! no more "4wd only" signs! I'm already a pavement slave! lol

when we got my truck I "didn't need" 4wd.. well the truck makes a crappy street truck, it'd be nice to be able to do at least small trails.. but to go on stuff like you did in those pics.... paradise

Looks like a great spot, you'll have to take me there when I get my hubs fixed.

we camped not far from the spot we stopped at with you last time Carson, before you broke dat hub. Of course we took the route out that we attempted with you, and didn`t break anything!
The Sunrise trail might be trouble for you with that v-rock, I would only take you there with a written waiver from your girlfriend, absolving me of any responsibility should you go sideways in there. Seriously though, if your tires lost traction for a sec, it is very possible you would be tossed inside. The trail goes to a kick-a$$ camping spot, but in all honesty it is not long enough to make it a common destination.
Oh and we saw the lake you told me you were at one time, up that road we stopped at to air down.
Francis lake it was called!

P.S.
I used to live in Calgary, and missed the lower mainland, so I know what you Albertans are talking about!

I don't blame you she would hate you for sure if I fell into that. It does look alittle scary.

actually I want you to try it out now that I think about it! I`ll get some good pics!

One summer when we're not traveling around in Baja, we're going to check out B.C. That place is beautiful. Great trip report too, BTW.

[ld50]

he he, is that a pube on your camera lens?

j/k


-Ken Cooke, there are some nice spots up here and on Vancouver island. Next month is my 2nd annual trip to the island to do some trails, can`t wait!

LD, I think you're overdoing the concept of a closeup if you get pubes on your lens

No, that was a hair (from a head) on the scanner
