11:10 beaver pond is only 25yrs~ old, was a fairly deep gully way back. Another tote road on the other side of the pond goes up into the hills.

11:38 right here on east side is where tote road went up, fully grown in for sure now.

@kam75 24 дня назад

6:45 trail around water is on the right...for the next time.👍

@kam75 24 дня назад

Well, at least no alders today!

@padwrr 24 дня назад

Good thing. I'd about had it by that point!

@kam75 24 дня назад

..no more garbage dumping now, can't drive up the trunk.

@foamer443 25 дней назад

"Bazillion tires" that'll help if there is ever a forest fire. Can see that would happen. Looks like the RofW is nicely drivable, to a degree.

@padwrr 24 дня назад

Maybe bazillion was a bit of an exaggeration lol If you check the comments on the other videos you'll read about how the area was drivable up until the late 80s, possibly early 90s.

@foamer443 24 дня назад

Oh I believe it. Sometimes feels like all one has to do is flip back that left facing page and you would be there.

@@padwrr ...I think I errored more like driveable up to early 80's when concrete barriers went up after crossing weight went to only I think 5 or 10 tons...after the big hole in the bridge crossing showed up. They ran dump truck back then to get gravel just across the bridge and bit before logging trucks and skidders too.
