Meadow Lake Snow Ride 11/13/09
Went riding today with the Father in Law. Parked on Bowman Rd. and went to the top of the Fordyce. I couldn't talk him into dropping down to the Committee Crossing. Wuss.
Pee Break
Didn't look thick enough yet.
The snow in the trees was very nice
A good view
The old town site
This cabin has seen better days
At Excelsior Mine site looking at the back of Old Man Mtn. (I think)

Yep, dem der are me tracks.
Going down WH 3-5 when it was dry was enough thrill for me. Going down it with a few inches of snow did not seem like a wise choice.

It's a creek crossing near a trail that intersects the Fordyce Trail and is used as an entry/exit from the Fordyce without going all the way to Meadow Lake.QMaze wrote:Whats the Committee Crossing? Any pics of that? Like the pics.
Here's a link where you can see the area and the trail maps.

Here are some cool pix to give you more of an idea of what the Fordyce is like.
