[quote=Nephler;11820377]This road is, oddly, only open during winter.
There is a gate that closes it during summer.

wonder why this is??? what's at the end of the road Ed?? a parking area, turn around space??? Is it meant to be a hiking trail in the summers...??? Beautiful shots of the road and area!!! makes me wanna hike to the top of the ridge!

The road goes, just around the corner you see to the left, to a parking area, quite large parking area. It's at the base of Government Peak. The road is also a little steep, you must use 4WD.

Forgot about those hanging from the Jeep. Think I may still have them somewhere.

Out for a bit of a hike today around the area I was at yesterday, base of Government Peak, and saw these two in the brush.

Quite a cloudy day, but was still great just to be out walking about.
