We found another trail that goes to the river in a different area. It wasn't crowded like the other 2 spots to the river.

Skipped my usual Saturday ride, but headed out Sunday due to slightly cooler weather. 96 degrees versus 98.
At what point does a wash become a Canyon...cause this one is getting close...

75 percent of our trails still look like this, was raining sat and sun morn when we were working trying to get this area more passable for stock tire machines they runined it with a logging machine last fall and 3-4 ft ruts, if it ever drys can get a couple of the guys have tlb's we can fix it more permanently but no one has been able to ride all the trails till we worked all day yesterday on clearing tops and grown in branches
we have a ride scheduled for next sun I'm sure it will be muddy, supposed to rain more this week, maybe I should trade it for a jet ski

Early ride. Trying to get out by 12-1. Expected high: 105. After weeks of great weather here, the calendar has flipped from early spring to hell. Highs of 110 by mid week...

Early spring to hell lol.
Need to head for the sky islands.
Not sure if they offer much riding, but if you figure that out let me know.
My work gives me a week off in July and December.
Not exactly choice traveling weather at this end in winter, that end in summer.
Showed my wife your picture, she's trying to convince me riding the tractor bushhogging counts as riding.
I'm not so sure....

Picture:
Been too wet to get out in the field till now.
Little bit taller than I like (not even thinking about bailing it)

I got to do research on maybe the area around Mount lemmon/Oracle to see if there's any decent riding. Went to top of the world a few weeks ago... First time I've ever been. Seems like it would be nice and cool, but I don't know about riding. I really do miss Chino valley and Prescott and a variety of riding to be had all year round there.
I probably will do an occasional trip up to Payson or somewhere... But gosh I am so tired by Saturday morning it's so hard to get out of bed.

This river continues the thwart me...
Next to it, thick cover gives cattle a nice spot to rest...
Local legends, coke ovens, across the way...
And then, the Copper Basin Railway makes an appearance...
The sweet desert nectar in full bloom. Finally, the heat can be felt radiating up from the ground. Triple digits close by, and it's time to head home.

not the trail but just got done mowing a bunch of the trail with the dr brush mower, one of the other guys took out his orange tlb and pushed back al the wind damaged trees back and i got about half the trails which were all over the cage in alot of spots. weighs a thousand lbs and alot of mud left, no problem pulling the mower though ditches or getting stuck, the more i drive it the more i like it, what it looked like after
The river was roaring when we went a couple weeks ago. Prescott has some really nice riding of the 69 I think its called walker road/ potato patch area

Tired of being thwarted by the river, this time I hauled to the other side to ensure that I can make a trip up Walnut Canyon.
The destination
The sentinel
The rugged terrain
Meanwhile, to the north, the Woodbury fire rages...

Really? I see one just about every time I'm there.
Last week it was about 280 cfs. Today: 500 cfs. Must be raining in NM?
Prescott/Chino valley was my old stomping grounds. 8800 of the 8900 miles or so on my 700 came from that area. And you're right...good riding up there.
