Ok, borrowing from Putty and Syncro ( I think these log threads just kick ass ) I'm going to post recent new stuff in the Valley. I am on the verge of purchasing a new chainsaw so things should really start moving once that happens. I'll start with the most recent pic of some work that fixed poor access to a great trail here. It was nearly impossible to get the bikes down this awkward hill before.

We don't know what our limits are, so to start something with the idea of being limited actually ends up limiting us.

cool. looks solid.

Being an agoraphobic adrenaline junkie would be pretty convenient, because you could get your rush from just going to the store to get some milk instead of having to jump off a mountain or out of an airplane.

they also call me "balloon"

I'm in Victoria that weekend. I'm around Friday night though. Toss me a PM when you get into town. I'll tell you how to find the above stunt.

The wife and I went out today for a nice afternoon in the woods. Weather was amazing as most of you probably witnessed.

Stacked slats. Yellow cedar.

Fat slat.

Left hand swooping hip started today. Landing next.

what scares me there is that the botto of the tranny looks like it will get eroded as soon as that creek picks up.

You are correct. There is a short period during the year where it can't be crossed to high water. I built it knowing this, so we'll see what happens. As a matter of fact, there is a little bit of water at the bottom of it right now due to the sudden spike in temperature.

Yup…

It won't wash out until next year (maybe). The chances of it washing are pretty slim too. The water doesn't get high there, and there is little current. One days work to access one of the best trails here. See my point?
