The spillway on the North side deposits H2O onto a big rock ledge, then drops another 100' + into the lower gorge... the head of Gorge lake.
South side spillway pretty much just drops off directly into the gorge. It's spectacular when the gates are open! These were taken March 4th of 2018- a more normal snow accumulation at this location http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582214545.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582214545.jpg No kayaking zone... the ride down would be pretty rough http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582214545.jpg |

A new recruit has appeared in the Newsom Garage for Wayward Motorcycles (NGWM)
My big Brothers beautiful 1983 VF750R Interceptor... he bought it new, the dealership in Everett only got 4 total. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582510910.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582510910.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582510910.jpg Found an emergency $20 gas money stash in the owner's manual, nice and crisp printed 1990. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1582510910.JPG It's tabs expired May 1995... only sitting 25 years. All hydraulic systems were toast. Brought the front calipers and master cylinder home and rebuild them so I'd have brakes to get er moved... that all went swimmingly! |
That is beautiful Skip, and I suspect will bring some pretty good $$'s when the time comes. I had an '84 700 'back in the day' and loved it. :D

Nice Cold Spring Tavern pics David. The place and many of the surrounding roads are favorites.
