Back in the early 80's the road was sealed on the range,
i can not remember how far that road goes.

Where does it lead to again?

Who was the guy who owns most of the land up there?

Until around 2000 the black stuff went as far as range control. Or a bit before Kealbottom CK About 16km from the top of the range.

We rode up there as kids,
used to ride along the road, the cops stop us one day.
Some guys were cutting the hind quarters off cows with chain saws,
they were after them, they let us go.

Sawyer comes to mind who owed most of the land up there?????

Did enduro's up there too, and they used to have rodeo's up there.
At rodeo:
Biker pulls his cock out at the bar, takes a piss, old ringer up's him for it,
bikers 3 on 1 against old ringer, station owner over PA sends ringer to fight
at bar, they beat the piss out of bikers
Later the bikers turned up with guns, couldn't win the fist fight so they get guns. soft cocks.......
