Location

Less than half a mile off a road in the Bighorn National Forest.

Participants

Tankgunk and his sister.

Plans

Tankgunk and his sister drove up into the forest after work and gave it a shot. Also, we took a (slightly) better camera than last time and went during daylight.

Expedition

It was about a half hour drive to the edge of the forest, and then another hour long drive to the "road closed" sign on Forest Route 227. Spent a bit of time backtracking, and ended up driving down a larger road to the head of Forest Route 226. About 2000ft from the hash point, we left the car on the other side of a stream and headed out along the road on foot. Fooled around with the camera, took pictures of the stream running along the road, etc. About the time when we were right across from the hash point, we realized that we couldn't cross the stream safely. We could have gotten around it at a fork near the spot where we parked, but it would have taken too long; we were out of daylight. Still had fun, though, and got some cool pictures while we were driving home.
