December 9th, 2007

On Saturday December 9th, 2007 we meet up at the Quick Stop in Cowiche. We headed up Cowiche Mill Road at turned off on C1000. This is where we aired down.

Up on Cowiche Ridge we went until Victor's Bronco lost his brakes after backing down this hill climb he could not make.

I walked back up to the XJ to turn around and go back down.

Since we had to do some repairs on Victor's rig we decide to just sled on that slick hill climb Victor backed down.

My Lab loves the snow.

Doc (my 2 year old) was having a great time.

Even the old guy gave it a try.

Victor had to get back so he left early. We took our time and played around a little on our way back down.

You can see the Pine Mountain Lookout in the back ground above the XJ.

Here is looking down at the valley. Yes my XJ is facing the wrong way. A slick trail with a Lock Right plus pushing the skinny pedal equals a fun turn around.

On down the trail we found Victor broke down. It seemed to be a fuel switch problem.

They got it running and he was off again. Well for a few miles. I end up towing him back to Cowiche with the XJ.
Have you pulled a Ford lately?

This was a fun run for all.
