The logging company has done it again

Just as an FYI for anyone planning on riding around the wagon / creeks area. The logging company has started logging at the bottom of the hill that most of us take to connect the main haul road (on top of burke mountain) to the creeks. They have completely destroyed the area from the bottom of the rocky hill all the way to the creeks. Yesterday i buried the commander up over the bottom of the doors. So if your in the area you may want to avoid that area.

Might be in the area end of may.

Thanks for sharing enjoyed riding with u last week

they are creating 250.000 worth of new outlaw trails:lol!:

thanks for the heads up

Thanks for the info. Headed in that area real soon.

thank you lil will

I'm used to this where I'm from. If it's a muddy rutted out skidder road, be prepared to get stuck bad. Sucks to have to deal with it, but then again, that's how most trails come to be in the 1st place. I very rarely use my winch, but this is why it's on there and ready.

I rode this trail today its now passable :)

We rode nine mile ridge Monday. It's all torn up, took us forever to get through there.

Tore up how with down trees or by a excavating equipment

Both. Dozers and skidders have rutted it bad and trees across the trails everywhere. Too much work getting through there in a sxs

Was down below the Wagon Wheel all last week. The logging is full steam ahead. Log truck & logging equipment running alot & the road/trail going to the top all messed up. We made it through Sunday week ago & tried again on Tuesday. Not worth the risk & hassle to get through.

gosh in one breath it sounds like a challenge and fun. other breath sounds like a total struggle

I got a buddy that's cuts timber on that job and he said they will be there til the snow starts flying or until the haul road get too bad to continue, plenty enough timber on that job to keep em all summer. If youre in that area, stay on your bike, they're coming across a few rattlesnakes.

I dunno bout some other areas but around home here it has been a real bad year for snakes and even ticks...they are everywhere

i hope they don,t mess with the trails going toward Welch

Glen, I haven't seen any logging west of the haul road. Is the trail going by the old outpost still passable? I haven't been out that way in a year or more.

Yea Timmi u can still get though there

Thanks for the info
