Never looked at the pic that way until you pointed it out. Gee. Thanks Brian. Now I have to watch out for the ol' Ricster.
Bad news for the quad riders. Just heard that the Creek trail is getting shut down. I'm not sure how much truth there is to this and time will tell, but some guys posted up pics of state signs at the trail heads. You know, those signs that say no quads, horses, etc...
I guess part of the problem was, right after our trip down there, somebody had a jeep breakdown and they left it overnight. Sometime during the night some yay-hoo set it on fire. Of course, that drew unneeded attention to the area. The state own the trailheads and never fussed much about it until that happened. This would be the area where dropped down in from the railroad tracks and the are that we dropped in from last year off of Pine Point (down the steep hill).
I've been riding that creek bottom for over 20 years. Sure sucks to lose it as an option if this is all true.

Figures... I was hoping to have a quad for next year's gathering too. Sorry to hear that Mike. Hopefully it's just a rumor.
Yep, that trail sees thousands of riders a year. It's a shame that one jackwagon ruins it. Or one group of jackwagons... whichever.
Honestly, most of our ridding this year was on club ground. However, the part lost is the best riding.
It's a pretty good chunk though.

Cotty, fix all those pot holes!!!! I was driving TOO the new rig location, GPS coordinates suck and I was at the MINGO Sportsman club. Freaking road, lol. I was two hours late. Drilling at what I was told and where it is at is totally TOO different places. What the heck is with these roads?????? LOL.
Oh and the guy with the trailer had like 20 Turkeys around it. Did not see the ghost however.
