The Blue Mule - Page 8

• The Blue Mule is seeing lots of road time as a commuter-car pool vehicle these days.
• June found us trying to reach Tin Cup Pass, which was still snowed in at mile 4.
• Our next little jaunt was to North Fork Reservoir. On the way down, we were snowed on.
• I decided to test out pulling the trailer. Unfortunately, it became obvious that some engine work needed to be done.
• We pulled out the engine and had the head planed and the valves replaced. That really did the trick!
• In August, we took a trip up to Aspen Ridge with "Bobicon"
• Then we really decided to test out the Blue Mule and took a trip up to St. Elmo, Hancock, Hancock Lake, and almost all the way up to Mary Murphy Mine.
• Our last August trip was an exploration of the south side of Twin Lakes and then up to the boundary of the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness. Now, that was a rough rode!
• But, the piece de la resistance was the CFFC 2008 Fall Color Tour!
