scotty creek

ok, so the victim and i decided to take a trip up camas into ruby creek then into scotty creek. i have been in camas and ruby creek a few times, so i didnt take any pics........but when we got to scotty creek i had to get the phone out and snap some pics. it was a great spot to ride. it is mostly 2 track and 4 wheelers are allowed. we were there only for about 1 1/2 hrs and the views were awsome. the first pic is at the bottom of the canyon. there are still alot of claims for panning gold here. (how much can there be left after years of sifting threw the mud)





here is a sign on a tree stakeing claim to a spot. should have took a pic of the spot. you would need a chain saw to get to the creek from were this sign was posted.




here is just another pic looking up the road from were the sign was posted.




here we are some were near the top of the pass i think, looking south you could see the snow, this would be looking east. if i am thinking correctly, some were down there is blewet/97.




just another shot looking s/se. there were these rocks that looked like the surface of the moon, stupid me, didnt take any pics of those. the victim will know what there name is. we were told that there is a old mining cabin some were up here. we will need to go back and find it.




looking south towards the top of the pass. i guess the snow there still coverd the road we were told.




i wish we had more time to snoop around. only seen a moutain bike rider. other then that there was no one. this would be a good day ride or even a camping weekend. i will be going back.

Sweet, looks like most got out and rode this weekend.

You were up the north fork of Shazer Creek.

well we started at scotty creek ? never been up there so i dont know were i was at.

Awesome country up there! Beware of that area during hunting season. Every hunter in the state who owns a 4 wheeler is up there it seems.

We were up Shaser Creek, and the rocks are Serpentine. You can ride all the way into the Teanaway from up there. Pretty cool area.

sorry I missed ya. We Were riding just on the other side of 97. next time your going up there we should hook up. been riding that area for years. And yes there is still some snow in a few spots. I rode up there last sunday all the lower stuff is open and clear, like Ironbear, most of teanaway ridge, the south ridge trail from ironbear is clear ,most of the miier peak is open, except a shady spots. The water is still running deep and fast down lower, like on middle fork and west fork. I think the whole area will open and awsome in two weeks!!
