    ok.
    there are a couple of really key pics missing from this trip...
    This pic, courtesy of @Night Eagle

    shows me and the adolescent Brett cutting on either end of the tree.
    The pics we need too see are of the finished cuts. :popcorn: #Husquvarna vs Stihl...


    Plus, where are the pics of the tree we all had to slide under?

    I think it's safe to blame the cutting on the Scandinavian operator of said saw and not the Scandinavian saw itself. :anonymous:

    Or was it the tree over the mud pit? That one was funny, we sank down into the water to perfectly get under it.

    These are the only pictures I took of the actual cuts.

    And we cant forget the sawzall!!

    And just a reminder for the chainsaw folks to add a few wedges to your Amazon cart right now before you forget.

    nah, just a typical chain saw. Like a woman. When you get them running and purring loudly, they can be a lot of fun to play with and the amount of wood you can go thru is incredible.
    But when they have had enough, no amount of persuasion will get them started again.

    Ran Barbour Fork today with my dad. The weather was crumby and it was raining off and on which hampered picture taking. I didn't quite know what to expect from this trail. Overall it wasn't very scenic, but it the most technical trail I have run to date. Shows just how much of an wheeling n00b I am. The rig did great and handled the obstacles with ease. Can't wait to get out and hit some more trails this summer. These are just phone pics and I haven't looked at the ones my dad took yet. May update this post later with new pics.

    Headed out to Yankee Hill with @Coop68 today for a quick afternoon run.

    Nice and dry when we started with a little thunder in the background while airing down and the views were beautiful today.

    Then we hit a little rain...it started coming down pretty good when we reached the clearing after the shooting area. We decided to wait it out a bit in case of hail, which did come so we parked the trucks under a couple of trees there for a bit. Temps dropped quick down to 52 degrees.

    Decided to head on up further as it eased up a bit. Nice and wet making it a bit more challenging through some of the deeper/narrow rocky areas.

    Did someone think they could head down the trail over the drift, and failed?

    Was on Red Cone yesterday and couldn't believe how many side by sides, motorcycles and atv's were coming back up the hill from Webster because of that snow drift
