This is a logging road on a Weyerhauser tree farm. This awning thing is pretty strange. It's a huge sheet of steel that is supported by two big chains that are somehow tied into the rock face. It's there to basically divert a waterfall across the road. It makes me nervous everytime I drive under it.

Re: Northwest Edition pics

I saw you on Saturday (12/27) driving in the hills above Glasgow. I was down visiting family and was going up to see my grandpa at his rock quarry up Kentuck Way. I was in a red crewcab GMC - I came around a corner and was shocked to see such a nice Blazer!

I can't believe that metal is still there- we used to go up Dellwood all the time in high school!

Small world. I grew up across the street from quarries on Kentuck. Took a shower in the back of a 68 stepside when I was about 14 at that waterfall. Brother pulled up underneath and stopped. 2 of us in the back got wet. Was up South Fork of Coos a few weeks ago elk hunting. Also graduate of ole Glasgow elementary!!

Re: Northwest Edition pics

Great pics. I've been under that overhang once back in high school.

IGOR, We used to go swimming in a rock quarry up pass the Kentuck golf course 'til someone told us how dangerous it was.

Nice looking blazer and beautiful country. I can't wait to build a blazer with late model drivetrain and doing a monster road trip to the nw.
