Rouch Cabin Ride, Whiskey Falls, Aug 24
This is the 3rd ride during this trip to Whiskey Falls riding area in the Sierra NF. In this video we cover the loop from the campground down Whites Trail and make our way over to Rouch Cabin. From there we find our way over to a Forest Route that eventually becomes single track. We go off-road and play for a time on an unknown rock slab before connecting with Nine Trail and head back to camp stopping for a short time at Whiskey Falls. Thanks to Christian, Reagan and Walter for hosting us at their local riding area. Thanks also to Griffin and Joe for their video footage. Additional riders on this loop include Mitch, Chad and Alex. Thanks for a fun ride we all had a great time we need more riding like this.

The last day at Gifford Pinchot was the most eventful. The five of us set out for Adams Fork to ride the 271 trail to Blue Lake.

After finishing the ride and returning to camp he discovered that the fault on the 300 was due to a loose connector under the seat. Enjoy the scenery with mount Adams and Mount Rainier on the horizon.

    At roughly the 12 minute mark and going over the rock obstacle (which looks tough, especially with the steep hill on the right), use the front tire technique. Which basically one guy is standing to the side control the bike via handle bars, second guy is in front of the front wheel and using his hands grab the front tire and turn it, making it into a two wheel drive dirt bike to get it over the obstacle. Used it many times and it’s very effective and probably uses the least amount of energy for both guys trying to man handle the bike.

Given the penalty of tipping over LEFT, I got off and walked up that section, but bc the rocks were big and off camber, there was alot of sweating and swearing. Great trail though.
