Looks like Steve's rig will never see this trail as it stands with these rules...Not sure on width, but 5" too much wheelbase

I don't think tight had anything to do with it! The PNW guys that were in on it are old school, and they all drive "real" Jeeps. How's that for me being cynical...

We could all take turns riding with Curtis and the rest of the short wheelbase group
It was mentioned at last nights PNW meeting that in one day, three trees were cut down and one bypass was made on the Little Ratsnake. There was also a fair amount of litter along the trail.

Okay, we're a little crazy to have a Duramax for a daily driver. But if we go off our meds, we might wind up in a Prius.
