It looks very nice.  The trail and your rig/trailer setup.   :)

It looks like a great set up.  I sure wish I had something like that to explore that area.  I'm in the same boat as Jonny Rash, stuck in the middle with all the flat.

The combination works out great, the trailer is compact & lightweight so it doesn't bog the Sidekick down.  Can't image not living with mountains all around ...

Crew Carb Rob,
It's not all that flat out where I live.  Northeast Oklahoma actually has a lot of rolling hills with lots of trees.  I guess you could say it's like Arkansas, but with less meth labs hidden in the valleys.   ;)

I would love to go out there and explore though.

JR,

Crew Carb Rob?  Yeah, I suppose I do like to eat a bunch of carbs every day.  I dont always show it though.  I'm always working on keeping my girlish figure.   :P

I didn't know what part of OK you were in.  It's nice to hear you have some topology changes there to enjoy.  I swear I can walk 2 blocks from my home and see the curvature of the Earth.

Have you ever thought of doing the Fall Clasic?  I keep thinking that I would like to do it some time.  But that is really far from Nebraska.

Fall Classic is a great run if you don't mind snow camping and a little cool

That looks like a lot of cold to me!  More like the deep winter classic.  I would have to borrow some carbs from Rob just to keep from freezing.   ;)

It's early Winter, not much snow yet, you can still get around without a Snowcat :o) temps can swing from single digits up into the 30s at night.  You do spend at lot of time by the campfire.

I think it would be fun to camp in the snow.  More fun to meet all the good people and have fun wheeling.

We can have lots of chili.  I hear there are good carbs and extra heat after eating it.

This looks great, trail head is only 3 hrs. from home.  I have to remember it for next year.  I won't have the comforts that you had, but we tented until succumbing to to to the comforts of a camper.
How big is the lake?  Does it have fish?

Worth remembering for next year.  Ahhh, a comfortable bed makes all the difference  :)  It is a fairly small and shallow lake, very clear, didn't see any fish.
