We had planned on trying Upper Hut, but a crew were digging up the
road about 3km in, so we decided to head through Alice Lake Park and
see
where it went. The road joins up to a main road that is paved in some
spots and ends at a parking lot. We played in the parking lot for a
while;
I lost power to my ARB switch so I had to fix that after climbing out
un-locked. Ended up being a poor connection on my part. We headed back
down the road to a side trail, which turned out to be wide enough for a
mountain bike. As we were backing out Kristian broke a motor mount,
so we strapped it down and called it a day as we were all soaked at
that point. We headed back to town to air up, then to Starbuck's for
coffee.
Doug got hi-centered trying to go straight over.
Kristian going to the rescue.

Just needed a little tug.

Gotta love the departure angle.
Turning around.

Didn't think it was that steep, did ya.
