An encapsulated example of what we do for fun. Since we heat our house with wood, and we love to drive around
in the mountains, might as well have fun, too! Unfortunately, this run is kind of sad, as despite the exquisite maze of rough-and-tumble roads and trails, these are "logging woods" and the forest does not look happy. Sure, it's still a beautiful place, but the ravagement of callous Forest Service "stewardship" has left undeniable and hideous scars. Add to that the greedy miners of yesteryear, and you realize that it will be a long, long time after we are gone from here that this place looks natural and healthy again!
