We had to climb 1000' up a very steep talus-filled gully just to start the traverse in the panorama. The kids thought I was nuts so I made sure I beat them to the top by 10minutes just to show them it's not all that hard. They recovered their egos eventually....

Here's a pic of my drill gear coming up the road to the drill site. The guy who makes these roads is a magician with a Cat....and fearless... It's every bit as steep as it looks. The first Cat in line is hauling a sloop with 10,000# of drill steel in it and next dragged the 11,000# drill up.
