And besides th' Douglas Fir, Hemlock's, Cedar's and Alder's, th' underbrush (mostly Huckleberry and Salal) is thick and about 8' high. If someone goes out there sans a compass, or doesn't know th' trails, they're lost in no time flat. There's a pretty funny story about that from one of th' early ParTay's. >> I'll >> never forget th' look on Phil B's face when he figured out what sights >> are for.

They haven't shown up by tomorrow moring I'll email 'em to ya. I posted a pic and a link to a video from yesterday's off-road trip. There were 8-9 4x4's and the Baja this time. I made it over several spots on the trails I didn't think I'd be able to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bq5fLmM9kg Still waiting on some decent rear tires, but letting the pressure down to 10 PSI helped a lot.
