    Lets do it! Jake and I were originally talking about trying the whipsaw last weekend until we found out that it is still covered in snow. It looks like a fun trail though.

    Yep, that's the lake and the campsite. It's one of the favorite places I've camped. The second night we dropped down to a large clearing near the turnoff to go up to Molybdenite Peak. Someone had built some outhouses and it looked like you could probably fit at least a dozen rigs.

    Trail difficulty is not that high until you get near the top. The shelf road is very steep and narrow in places and the drop-offs are significant. If you saw the pics, you saw what happened to one of the rigs on the way back down.

    Also, it's +9,000 feet so us sea-level guys are a bit oxygen deprived up there. The payoff of course is that it is amazing beautiful. If you go, don't go alone because you might need their spare tire. :rofl:

    Why have I not heard of this before. I have to go to Metaline falls several times a year for work. Our biggest money maker is on the Pend Oreille river. (Boundary Project Dam) I will be scouting this out when I go in July for sure.

    Use the quote function man. So we'll know who you are talking to or what you are referring to.
