Hello gals and guys...
Inspired by Ibexoffroad's request to go on another run, and also by my lack of availability for Kawka (restricted time, budget etc)... I wanted to propose a day trip (for me) but does not be for you...
I'll be at Pigeon lake that weekend, I'm stuck there Saturday night but could get away early Sunday or Early Monday. I am thinking of taking Eric's suggestion of heading out to the Rocky Mountain House area- I did a trip there once about 3 years ago with the Land Rover Club and we drove up to a Fire Tower it was a fun run started out with passing through muddy terrain- some got stuck- both toyotas and land rovers. An impressive camaro engine, dana 30 axled Series II (I think) was the rescue vehicle of choice. Yet the more modern range rovers with crawl control that were not looking for trouble did not get into any- so 4 runners can do this run too .
We went up an abandoned service road, getting up was a bit trick as there were a few off camber sections into the drop off (which means I nearly had underwear issues), we got up there, looked around and came back down. If someone has an itch they need to scratch- yet are unable to go on a long one feel free to let me know and hopefully we can coordinate something.
I am planning on holding pretty tight timelines so pump your tires, pack your food, the night before so we can start at a good time and be done at a reasonable time. Last time I went we were done at about 3-4 some headed back to Edmonton, I camped close by and it was fun.
