Quite a bit of riding in that part of the country, but this is the spot <N 41° 57.566 W 111° 27.182> where (if you go all the way up and beyond) to this point: N41 58.599 W111 27.763, you'll certainly earn your ride for that day!

The helmet came in handy on this last trip:
While trying to come back, we came across a 25' long by 2.5' thick snow drift and we had no choice but to cross it. My brother-in-law (on his Yamaha motorcycle) went through no issue. I got a slight running start, hydro-planed the entire distance, got sideways and flipped the Kawi ATV, landing hard on the rocks off the snow drift. I have some great bruises, abrasions and lacerations to show for it, but at least I didn't crack open my pumpkin!

I wondered what the summer time riding was like up there. I have ridden sleds at Tony Grove numerous times. We always stay in Logan sure is beutiful country.
