Where Have You Off-Roaded Today? 3rd Gen

What beavers aren't allowed to get some channels?

 

Baby steps for someone who hasn't gone off pavement/gravel before.

 

Awesome better late than never!

 

"some" lol, can't the birds find a better beach?

 

Not today but this past Sunday at Azusa OHV in SoCal. Was cool to see a few of the Dirtnation Offroad guys there.

 

Took the long way to the store this morning. Not real hard core LOL. Still fun to get off the road though.

 

Where in MN? I just moved up here from WI. Looking for some trails.

 

I'm up north on the iron range east of Virginia. Lots of places to explore. Most beyond my low comfort level lol.

 

Good to know! Thanks for the info.

 

Somewhere in the Finger Lake Region

 

Damn. I miss upstate. Is the water table just always that high nowadays?
Where are you Catherine creek?

 

We got a lot of rain these past 2 days. This is more north than Catherine Creek, up in Hector area off of Seneca Lake.

 

Hector falls? I used to live in Watkins. Love it out there. Saw red newt winery at an event in Monterey food and wine

 

this is a wash area behind work me and my coworker (Tyler Cates photography) cut thru here when traffic is too heavy. he snapped some pics of my truck

I took this pic of his ranger but I suck at editing lol

 

Nice photos! Your truck looks so bad ass. I finally spotted it sitting out in front of your shop the other day.

PS - watch out for the homeless down in that creek. I've had a few bad run-ins down there while taking photos.

 

Sooner or later the bums tend to burn themselves out of those areas. Just takes one crackhead to light his tent on fire when "cooking" and then the whole damn tent city is up in smelly flames.

But then they are back not long after.

 

I love the entire region. I want to eventually visit every Finger Lake (there are 11) and the surrounding areas. I've only been to the Cayuga and Seneca. I was right there by red newt yesterday.

 

I just peeled this sticker off, but it was in the bottom right rear window.

I mostly did it to try to remain anonymous, keep all the distinctive things about my truck to a minimum, unless you know what you’re looking at.
Like one person recognized it, but he is from CT and knew where I was from.

 

I am actually a volunteer photographer for my local fire department. The "photos" that I was taking down in this creek area are exactly what you referred to - fires that were started by the homeless encampments. There have been no less than 10 fires down there in the past 2 years. Usually they run off and hide from all of us when the fire suppression activities are taking place, but sometimes they stick around and cause problems.

Unfortunately, the area is a protected watershed region, so the local government can't get down there with a bulldozer and just plow over all of the vegetation, which would ultimately end the problems. So for now, it just persists. Sorry to get off topic, I just figured it was worth mentioning to anyone who is down there tromping around to just watch your back. We now resume your regularly scheduled programing

 

Just got back from a trip to Oregon and Washington. Checked out Umpqua national forest, hot springs, cannon beach, Portland, Seattle, Whidbey island just to name a few. It was our first trip testing out the RTT. Great times were had looking forward to more!
