10 years old but shows why I love BC, the mountains, logging and clear cuts.
We have mountains and logging here too in Northern California. I like being in the mountains as well.

I should go get the same picture, 10 years later.

Magruder Corridor Run - Elk City, Idaho to Darby, Montana July 4-7, 2018. Epic.
My TJ, Rusty Cage, a JK and our friends from the OC in their loaded Range Rover.
Green Mountain fire lookout.
The crew. Not pictured is the Ford F250 with the cab-over camper (guy has a sweet CJ, but it was the only way he could get his wife to come).
Green Mountain fire lookout.
Just below the top of the Burnt Knob fire lookout. We cleared 3 or 4 trees to get up here. Chainsaw crapped out here so just up around the corner they're winching the last big tree off the trail. This was the highlight of the run. Steep, rocky and somewhat treacherous and exposed. 4-low, 2nd gear and Rusty Cage just crept on up. Absolutely loved this.

View from Burnt Knob.
View from Burnt Knob. Our fearless leader on the rock outcropping. That chick is a badass.

Poet Creek campground. Pesky camp deer harassed us all night.
Rusty Cage camp at Poet Creek.
Dry Saddle overlook.
View across valley descending from Dry Saddle. Sketchy multi-tasking with the camera here!
Descending from Dry Creek Saddle. Also a favorite part of the trail for me. View is incredible.
Bottom of the valley after descending from Dry Saddle. Back up we go from here . . .
Observation Point. There's an outhouse up here and this is your view. Good spot to clear your thoughts as it were.

Paradise Campground and Ranger Station. Selway River, Idaho. Still 65 miles to Darby, Montana from here, but essentially the end of the principal Magruder Corridor trail.
Rusty Cage on the Selway River, Idaho. Everyone else in their automatic air-conditioned JKUs pulled up a lot closer to the edge, but I wouldn't do it for fear of lurching my manual transmission. I roared back off that rock in reverse after the photos!

How about an upgrade to your rig so not to fear of falling into the river. I shamelessly took this from Chris' previous post.

My 95 I picked up about a year ago. 4.0L, 5 speed, 80k, third owner, really really good shape for a YJ. I drive it when the weather is nice.

I found a nice little campground on the way up the mountain this morning.
A little farther up the mountain.
