I know that Sopel, Robert, Marcin and myself are thinking of doing what we did last year and visit you guys for night 1 and then going off on a exploration journey into the wild. The details have not been finalized yet as to where but I guarantee that it will not be a boring trip.

I'm in for the exploring

Me and my son, John Jr., are in for the trip. Hope to have the suspension lift in before then.

As for exploring, what's there to see around there? Also wondering about possible fishing.

Can anybody post up the Google Earth coordinates for the area? Thanks

When it comes to the exploring I will give you all a fair warning right now - there is a large chance of several u-turns and back-tracking, since these are trails we have not been on the conditions are unknown so there will likely be bridge building, tree cutting, digging, etc. The aim will be to make it to some nice lakes for fishing and relaxing but depending on the trail and how long it takes to get from one place to wherever, there may be a chance of camping somewhere on the trail. I will be looking at the maps to figure out some neat routes, if there is a suggestion of some places we have not been to yet - great! I'll see about finding ways into it. For the most part we are going to try and stay away from main FSRs but at times there is nothing that can be done about it.

Lets see I bought a poulan with a 20" bar, I have a Jonsered 625( another saw from the old days and shovels 60" Hi Lift gloves and two hand still . I love trips like that

Sounds like my usual kind of trip Mat, especially running up trails that might lead to somewhere and turn out to be dead ends. Secluded lakes for fishing would be icing on the cake. If for some reason I can't get around an obstacle, I am also okay with the rest of the group that can going on.

 

[Sopel]

We thinking of heading out to Roche Lake area
There is so many more trails in there ,
we spend 2 days with Mat trying to explore but we just
