BIRCH CREEK 11 28 09

topo LOOP- 56 MILES

RIDERS J AITON , J COTNER

HAD THE WHOLE DESERT TO OURSELVES.

EVEN THOUGHT WE WERE LOST BUT WE WEREN’T

JUST DIDN'T KNOW WHERE WE WERE. ON THE WAY BACK TO THE TRUCK COULDN’T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DROP INTO THE BIG BIRCH CREEK WASH. RAN INTO TO SOME TALL, STEEP WATER FALLS.  KNEW WE WERE CLOSE BUT DIDN’T WANT TO RUN COTNER OUT OF GAS.

 JUST NEED A COUPLE OF MORE RIDES TO LEARN THE TWISTS AND TURNS.

THERE ARE A FEW TRACKS IN THE HILLS TO LEARN AS WELL.

 

WATER FALL

 GOOGLE EARTH SHOWS A TRAIL ABOVE WHERE WE TURNED AROUND.
