Yeah, we'll head up German river again, this time deeper and see what there is to see. Just be ready for a long bumpy fast ride on long run road... I'd rather just get that portion over with quickly. - That or I know that there is a back way in that is only open during hunting season - which November conveniently is. Hmm.

Technically, a lot of the roads we are on around 2nd mountain are powerline access roads. The just so happen to also be public roads.
So, good thought, but that's what we're already doing.

Bacon, go ahead and poke him.
It sounds more and more like we're agreeing that we'll just do the old flagpole for Friday night, then explore deeper into the German River area on the second day instead of dicking around too long on 2nd mountain.

Dan, you probably want to toss on a CB, but otherwise you're good to go from looking at your build. We tend to use the CB a fair amount on the trail, and on the trip down, just to keep everyone on the same page. It's a cheap item and it's extremely useful. We'd be happy to ride down with you.

My answer is generally no, unless we have a small group coming. However he can certainly ride along in your truck. If we have 4 or less TBs, then I think we can open it up to others.

Damn, looks like it's gonna be a good year!!
I've already got my days off approved! I don't think I'll have my fridge done in time, but hopefully I'll have the rear seats out and the platform built.
