Today, we explored a very small portion of some of the off road trails in the general vicinity of the campground, had some lunch on the trail, and combined the offroading with geocaching.
We explored Forest Service road 318 which comes off of Mt. Hermon road. It had been listed as a difficult trail in a guide book that Jason has. It started off rather mild, but did get more interesting towards the end. The trail got a bit too narrow for the Ram, so we held back, and Jason & Norah also turned around once they got to some of the more technical stuff, and once the storm clouds started moving in. The two Jeeps (Adam driving one with Jackie, Jay and Korey as passengers, Jon driving the other with Ed and Tom as passengers) and Mike in his Dak with Don as a passenger continued on. The road kept going and going well beyond our maps, but they figured they should turn around and head back to Jason, Norah, Ingrid and myself. We ate some lunch on the side of the trail and then headed back out. Jason & Norah went back to town to meet Jason’s parents and everyone else followed us to find some geocaches.
We Dropped our last travel bug(Walt-n-Ingrid’s Virtual Roadtrip #2 – Plum Crazy Cuda) at the Mt. Deception (Traditional Cache)
