Title: Mclean Saturday OCT 16
Post by: Mud on October 14, 2010, 07:33:35 PM

I am wondering if anyone wants to meet at the Mclean store around 10 Saturday morning? I've causually been out there a few times but i'd love for someone who knows where they're going to show me around a bit. I'd prefer something with a bit of a challenge as well. 

TJ, 35s, own recovery gear, rear tow point, and winch.

Still going. Beat at the store around 10, then to FIsh East if anyone is thinking about it.

I would encourage you to try something other than Fisher East if you're running solo.

Fisher East has a lot of deep holes, and it'll probably be faily wet after yesterday's snow. If you aren't able to get un-stuck or you happen to have something break on you, it's a long hike from many parts of Fisher East out to the road.  ???

Thanks guys for the input -  too bad I  didn't get the sound advice until today! I made it down Fish East quite a ways with a lot of winching before turning around. A great time nonetheless! The snow and inch of ice in the water made things interesting...
