Shoestring Run
August 9th, 2008
On Saturday August 9th, 2008 we met up on FS590. We took FS590 up and onto 4W617 (Lily Pond).
Scuba had a fuel leak and had to turn around right before this area.
This bridge was real slick from the mud hole at the beginning of it.
Right after the bridge there was a good hill climb.
On top there was another good climb.
On top we regrouped.
Colemancooler having fun.
At Lily Pond we turned up 4W676 (Kaner)
A ways up 4W676 we stopped for a break.
