California Gulch

After Animas Forks, we took our time riding up to California Gulch. Glenn had some vapor lock issues. Not having low range to run the engine at higher revs will cause less air to draw through the radiator. Another reason to have lower gears. Krista and Phoebe turned back about halfway up because we discovered the "new" QT was not driving the front driveshaft. No 4 wheel drive did not sound too healthy, so she went back to the KOA. :(

After some time to take in the view from the top, we dropped down to Lake Como and met up with the gang that ran up Poughkeepsie Gulch. After some Scout crunching from Scott, we trekked towards Hurricane Pass and beyond to Corkscrew Pass.
