Rode Mueller and North Canyon this morning. Kern River is putting in a pipe line so you can not make the loop. I rode up both sides to the pipeline and back down. Talked to a Forest Service guy up there and got the skinny on the trail. Back in the 60's there was some right a way problem and a Member of the Bountiful Jeep Posse who owned the property allowed the right a way on the condition that motorcycles would be allowed for time and all eternity.:hail2thechief:Also rode up Ward Canyon (Buckland) to the top. Amazing how much snow is still everywhere. Found out from the same Ranger that I broke the law up there by going passed Buckland. The trail above Buckland is closed until sometime in July. Suppose to be a $170 ticket but he liked me. Nice early morning ride rolled out at 5:45am. Tried to hit Farmington but the gate is closed on the bridge at the bottom. Same Ranger said the road has sluffed off a little up high and they have no money cause Obama has taken it all away. Has no idea when it will be opened. Sorry no pictures never slowed down.
