Ride from New Fork to Little Flattop and Big Flattop

We started late, but took our rifles in case we ran into elk. Of course, since we had rifles, that didn't happen. Lots of deer however! This photo overlooking our old place was taken from our picnic spot on Little Flattop. We were hunkered down beneath a large rock out of the wind which was cruel. Later it let up, and our ride lasted longer than we imagined. We took the four wheeler rather than horses this day. Riding down the hill to the old ranch, you get a good view of what the burn did to Indian Lookout.

We rode into Coal Mine Creek, and what's left of the Camp Stool Bar camp that Tommy Oneil had there.

From Big Flattop, there's still that wonderful view of our place.


This was taken from the New Fork Lake rim looking east. We thought the green that the fire didn't get was interesting from this view.
