couple trail pics from this mornin

[rangerbum]

Went up above Roger's Lake this morning to kill time and decided to take a couple pics on my phone. Had a couple close calls, almost slid off the trail in a goopy mud hole, over the 200 foot ditch, dragged the pass side of my rear bumper on the ground climbing, and jumped a kellyhump by accident and barely got back over it on the way back. No action shots as I was alone, but here they are, enjoy...

picked up a hitchhiker and he stayed with me for about 10 miles on my hood. I believe he said his name was "chirp"

By the way those rain-x wiper blades kick rainy butt.

nice truck, beautiful country

The trucks alright right now, but it should be sweet once I make up my mind what I want it to be. There's a merkur 2.3t at a local yard with nothing but rear end damage I may look into. I would not mind the extra ponies. I'm sure you know what i mean.

WTF is a kellyhump?

basically a trench to keep rigs from passing. they dig it a couple feet deep then pile the dirt in front of it. you drive over one your high centered. I didn't know that it was a kelly hump til I got about 3 feet in the air.

how exactly does one miss something like that? ive seen them in some woods i hunt in and theres no way i would miss it.

because I was on a smooth fast dirt road with whoops in it. I was going about 40 and it looked like just another whoop.

Beautiful! Your last picture reminds me of the logging trails, where I used to live in Maine. I wish we had good two tracks like that in SE Michigan!
