CURRENT CREEK



Current Creek is 25-30 miles on up the road east of our Home
National Wilderness area with lots of hiking and ATV Trails
Looking toward Wyoming and Eastern Utah




Cross buck fence common in the West
Typically made from aspen cut in the Area




Out for a little 4 Wheeling
Cody had his first encounter with a cattle Guard
I thought he had broken his leg, but he brushed it off and carried On




This is where we entered the back road Trail
I got off and walked and Chuck took the 4 wheeler up to more level Ground
Passed a man in a pick-up pulling a trailer filled with firewood he had Cut
Trail was hardly wide enough for one 4 Wheeler
We pulled completely off the Trail
