My buddy and I decided to make the easy ride to the summit of Pelican Butte. The majority of the trails are flat graded roads but it is an impressive 3800' verticle climb to the summit.

Ready to go!


Several creek crossings on the way.




Still a little snow on the way up


The cinder in the soil causes the snow to look blood red this time of year.


Great views from the +8000' summit






On the way down we took a trail that has a little mud where we found two guys on sport quads having a tough time. My tire fell into a very deep rut and caused me to slowly roll over and crawl around in the mud.








Good times

cool pictures you really should not mud wrestle on the trail

Nice pics , thanks for sharing. Hope the Quad came thru it ok. What Mt. is that? Mt. Hood?

No problems with the quad, it was a slow motion roll over into some soft sticky stuff. That is Mt. Mclaughlin in So. Oregon.

Thats a very cool pic, would make a good screen on the puter

PM me your email address and I will send you the large version of it.

Rule #26, never try to pass, somebody stuck in the mud nice pictures

Thanks...I forgot that rule...again.
