If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Boy I would love to go on that trip ... I have a pile of yellow reflectors that you can have if you are going mark the trail as you go...
No track and engine? what's the point?

I have not heard of anyone doing this trip for a while (as in years) so did the Tolovana river crossing get too high a cut bank for a crossing. What happen to this trail mmmm?
Thanks for the offer on the reflectors.. GPS it if I ever go.

Darrell, Down the hill from Murphy, at the Chatainka turn left and go about 2 miles or so to the Dunbar. You'll see some cabins on the river and the Dunbar.

We went by there a week ago on the Murphy Dome run, I plan to go that way to get to Beaver Point Lodge on the 26th, assuming I don't get lost :surprised:
