Saturdays Ride

[thefirstzukman]

Took the TW200 out on saturday morning for quick easy ride.. I took along my bro in law and a friend who is just getting into off road bike along. We ended up left hand fork of Hobble Creek where the road had been totally washed out and then up a canyon that hits Wallsburg. We decided to take trail 058 that will take you into south fork canyon but the trail splits and is un marked so I dont really know where we ended up.

Here are some pics
Top of the ridge where we called it quits and headed back

Found this Sheep about to die on the trail

The point we decided what trail to hit, this was fun for me but i wouldnt take anyone who was new at riding on it again.

We had to ride up the stream but I got the other two out of it for a few feet.

Half way through the rocks, I could ride this stuff all day.

That's why you always keep a pistol on you when you're riding...I ran across a baby deer with two broken legs out wheeling once and I had no way of dispatching it. That looks like a fun trail!!

Man, I'd love to get up and ride Hobble Creek. Where can you get a map showing the basic trails? I've never been up there, do they have a booth at the bottom like AFC that you can get a basic map at? Or do you have to go to the ranger station?

You have to goto the ranger station.
Lots of down trees, but on a big bike thats no problem.

Pretty simple really, just let me know when you want to go. I put in 50 miles 2 weeks ago and am wanting to get back up there.

I dunno, if I didn't own the sheep I wouldn't mess with it. If I were a sheep herder I would be a lot more pissed about a sheep with a bullet in it than just a dead sheep. :-\

I feel the same way, my bro wanted to shoot it I wouldn't let him. It could be dead already and if you shot it you would be to blame.. Don't think I let it their to suffer though.

I have the forest service "Summer Travel Map". It is available at the ranger station in PG or in Heber ($10 the last time I checked) and shows all the numbered trails/roads. It covers the whole national forest (uinta). (AF to SF to Strawberry to Mill Hollow give or take)

Looks like there are also some maps available for purchase here:
