Fourwheeling Excursion in Mink Creek

Yesterday Randy and me, Jared and Erin, and Mike and Lexie went fourwheeling to Mink Creek, located south of Pocatello. We started our adventure at about 4:00 and let's just say it was a very adventurous, scary, and fun ride. We started out our ride on normal trails. We were having a great time. We stopped for lunch or more like snack time and then decided to head out again. We came to a crossroads and we decided to take the path called Monemental Gulche Trail. We were all wondering what gulche meant or what it was. We went down the trail and it got really treacherous. It was a really scary trail because it was really skinny one. There was trees that were super close together, it was mostly down hill, it was rocky/bumpy, and branches were hitting us left and right. Well the worst part is that we kept going on this trail and we didn't know where it ended up and it was getting pretty late. We just kept getting farther and farther from the parking lot where our truck was parked. We didn't want to go back up the gulche trail because that would of been really bad. So we kept driving to the top of this hill where we could see a spectacular view of Pocatello. We eventually found a path that would lead us down towards the city of Pocatello and to the highway that would lead us back to the truck. The bad thing is that it is illegal to drive on main roads on a fourwheeler but we had drive like 13 miles to get back to the truck. We were worried that we would get picked up by the cops. We made it to the highway and just kept driving really fast. We eventually made it to the track and were loaded up when a sheriffs car drove past. We all looked at each other and laughed because we just made it without being caught. It was a fun ride but scary at times!
