      Next we headed to the 10 trail, luckily it was mostly down hill.  Although it did have it’s moments going upward.  After that some of the group broke up and headed back to the hotel.  The ones that stayed were in for some more adventure.  The idea was to head up the switchback trail and try to come down the staircase.  The problem however was that we had to go up first.  What seemed like a simple hill sent each and every vehicle backwards even though the wheels were moving forward.  We had vehicles strapped to trees and backed up to trees to stop the sliding.  Even T-bone had to get the winch out on this one.  After it was decided we could not go up we opted to try to go sideways across the hill and found a trail that took us to the staircase after all.  After reaching the bottom of the trail it was decided we should call it a day and we made our way back to the hotel looking forward to the hot meal that was waiting. 

 

      I would like to thank Max, T-bone and Hammer for the help on the trails that I lead.   I had a great group of people on both Friday and Saturday and they made it a great weekend.
