Had to winch it out, eh?
Yeah, very thick loon poop. I should have just stuck to my guns and went through the middle but my wife was alarmed at the depth of the water. The middle is the route we took coming back; no winching involved.

Did your wife get hurt so she couldn't do the dishes? If so I'm glad she is okay now.

That's the biggest beaver dam I've ever seen. You should be careful out there in the wilderness with beaver big enough to build a dam like that you might look like food to them.

Yeah, it was a good sized one. What you can't see is the hole by my left front tire. Saw it just in time or might have rolled the SxS. Spent 15 minutes throwing boulders in to fill it. Then drove on!

What an unmanly thing to do! Men don't ask for directions.

Which explains why Moses spent 40 years wandering around in that desert, eh.

Youngest son spent last week mountain biking near Moab, UT, his second trip out there with plans to go again next year.
He had a blast, other than the 17 hour drive each way.
