Bad news: Gary from SLO has sold his smoker and moved back to Oklahoma, so no smoked food at SLO anymore.
Hey, I'm going to try and get a bunch of USFS maps (freebee's) and high-lite the groomed trails and then hand them out to everyone. I'm not sure if I can come up with 75 of them, but at least I'll have a few for every group. What I'll do is use the following color codes:
Green - USFS
Blue- Private land on both sides of the trail
Red - No access with sleds.
Blue/Red - Easement
Hope this will help reduce conflicts between land owners and the 4M group.
FYI for those who are SLO guests (renting a cabin or room) you'll be able to use the easement out the back to access Farewell Mountain. Otherwise it's about a four mile detour you'll have to take to get to Farewell.
Also be aware that Mt Zirkle Wilderness area is to the east of our riding area's, and by Febuary, most of the boundry markers are under the snow, and if you get caught sledding there, the fine and court costs can be quite expensive.

Bush, I'm still trying to get the other fellars to commit, then I guess we'll have to worry about where we're staying-nonetheless I have a topper on my pickup if I come solo. Very nice avatar, I see you were more successful than others in your archery hunt this weekend. I like how you keep the truck for sledding purposes only

Oh gee, that's great
, I'll make a call and see what's up at SLO.Great Zoomie, a map would be helpful, thanks much! After you get it marked up, if you want to send it to me, I can reproduce it at work and make us a custom forum ride map to hand out.
Yeah snoogans, that's some road-kill surprise there
Muzzleloader in a few weeks for me, I gave up the pointy stick hunting. I'm challanged enough and don't have that kind of time anymore. I do miss hunting un-spooked game though.Great iceman!

Good to hear! It would be a shame to start all over after all you have done so far. By the way thanks again for putting this together.
POINTY stick!!!? I knew I was doing something wrong.
Yes,yes, first the broadheads get flung, then the pointy sticks start to fly.
Yes dragon12, me too. Sue was very nice but she really wasn't in the loop on all this, so i'm glad I had the emails we exchanged for some kind of record.
Zoomie, apparently, the wood for the smoker was being imported from back home....Heck, use Alder from along the creeks, that smokes good.
makin me cook on my day off...
Hopefully Ill be able to stay away from work... maybe i can bring the turkey fryer up and do some wings for a midday snack
