    When ya play in the mud ya get dirty. :D

    It's the windshield. lol
    The lens was dirty though. My phone was letting me know. Between that and the bouncing around, you'll notice almost all the pics I took are blurry.

    I have the GoPro Hero3 ready to use.
    Paid $20 for it and had to buy a battery, SD card and new case....$75 into it.
    Still ahead, when they're going for $140

    Mounted on the windshield and has a remote so I can snap pic after pic after pic. :D

    Found my next point of interest to potentially add to the run.

    A single lane trail going straight through the center of this waterway.
    There 'appears' to be a way out on the other side.

    Cool idea but Google maps shows a private property sign right at the entrance to it.

    What? :annoyed: there is.
    I was just looking to see if it was gated, before. (from aerial view)
    It's an area called 'the ruins'.

    Where's @LarryDangerfield , since I'm too cheap to pay for upgraded OnX, to tell us who owns it.

    Thanks Tim, you saved me from wasting time driving out there.
    Back to the drawing board.

    I have the upgraded version, but not the $99/yea ultimate version that shows land ownership. Grrr.

    Then it's allegedly safe to drive through, as long as you're out before any gates get closed.

    That happened to me at a different gravel pit. Went in to go fish some of their ponds next to the river.....
    :censored: locked me in so I had to create a way out.

    The gravel pits around here; your either a customer or trespassing.

    You probably got locked in cause,
    a) they didn't know you were there,
    b) they knew & you didn't ask so they said fuk him let him find a way out.

    It's hard to tell. :D
    That part of the pit isn't being used anymore.
    They didn't care if I went back there, as long as I stayed out of the trucks way.

    I didn't know what time it was, so it's possible they didn't know I was there after they closed for the day.

    I'm over that gravel pit. It was north and I've been lurking more south.

    The TWAT south of Rock Dam looks like a good run. I haven't rode it but I see a nice path between CTY I and HWY 10, they found.

    It's this offroad path to the east of Bald Peak Ave. (light blue)Screenshot_20250424_082047_Gaia GPS.jpg

    I see from the satellite view there are similar trails in the area not included in TWAT.
    Some are ATV trails but I can find some others. :drevil:
