Memorial Day "Sunday" Run on Whites Ridge
(May 25th, 2008)
On Sunday May 25th, 2008 we meet up at the snow park to air down. On this run we had 4 member rigs. Ceg, Test Dummy, Colemancooler and Scottd.
We ran the Mid Fork Ahtanum Road up and then the Whites Ridge Cross Over Trail to get on the Whites Ridge Crest Trail.
We came to a tree down across the trail.
Test Dummy ran the saw. Scottd and Colemancooler helped clear the trail and block the by-pass.
We headed up the trail to find two quads in the snow. One was stuck. They turned around and we started into the snow where some of the drifts made it off camber.
I stopped here to wait for the others. We let the kids and dogs play.

Moving on up the trail.
More snow drifts we couldn't stay on top of. We kept sliding down them. The off camber was a lot of fun since we had trees to stop us from rolling.
One off camber drift I had both drivers’ side tires off the ground due to romping on it to get though.
Time to turn around.
Bajaing back down was a lot of fun.
Regrouped
Next we ran down to the Mid Fork and up to Tree Phones.
It started raining hard so Scottd headed home. We ran down the Mid Fork and back up on Sedge Ridge. At Red Saddle we ran down to the South Fork Ahtanum Road. We took it out to Tampico and aired up. Colemancooler headed home and we went back to the sno-park to load up the Tweety Jeep on the trailer.
This was a fun run thanks to the people that came.
