We got out for the third trip since we purchased our used r 151. The trip was much more comfy having sealed off the air leaks and some other mods finished. Beautiful weekend down at Swan Falls, this is about 50 mile drive from downtown Boise. This dam along the Snake River was built in the early 1900's by a mining company and was used until 1994. The elevation drop from the rim down to the river is about 600 ft. There are also Indian Petroglyphs you can get to on 15ish mile mountain bike ride. Nice place to go Fall thru early Spring and is free. uploads/2239/sfshc_800x449.jpg - uploads/2239/sfshc_800x449.jpg . uploads/2239/sfs1.jpg - uploads/2239/sfs1.jpg uploads/2239/IMAG0646_800x449.jpg - uploads/2239/IMAG0646_800x449.jpg uploads/2239/sfs2_800x449.jpg - uploads/2239/sfs2_800x449.jpg uploads/2239/sfsng_800x449.jpg - uploads/2239/sfsng_800x449.jpg ------------- enjoy the fresh air |

Those petroglyphs are the absolute coolest thing. What a nice trip you had. Glad to hear some mods and a bit of TLC have really made your 151 perfect for you! ------------- https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=cnBvZC5zcG90dGVyQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ - RPod Rallies https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1W1foQXGtrjf8aYly1uh0b-bHPfI&hl=en_US - RPod Owner Map |
