Here you go. The pucker factor comes from the main rock ledge being at the crest of a 300' steep hill. The rig on it's side was originally completely on it's lid. Fortunately we had hooked a "safety line" up prior to his attempt that might have prevented him from barrel rolling all the way to the bottoms.

That looks fun. :thumbup:

I really don't know if that is Booth's land or not. He was our trail leader that day and took us all over the place.

This was in November and didn't look like anybody had been up it for awhile so everything was covered in leaves.

This hill is optional and you would probably never notice the turn off for it, and you can't really see this hill from the other trail. If I remember correctly it's not far off a gravel road with the main trail going to the left and circling around......if you didn't go up this hill you met up with the other guys on the other side of the hill towards the top.

It's towards no mans land, before you get there right across the main creek. Right around the corner from it. I've only turned over there once. Climbed it several times. It is pretty steep. The hill is easy up to the ledge, there is only one ledge. It is seldom traveled. Very hard to see/find if you don't know where it is at.
