One note of caution for #18. I took Paddock Val Powerline Trail north and expected to be able to turn left (go west) at the trail intersection at 44.18841, -116.57492. onX Offroad web page doesn't show it as private property but when I arrived at that point, the trail is not much of a trail and was very wet (risk of get stuck on a big GS1250) and to top-it-off, a big Private Property sign was posted (no fence). I then pulled out my iPhone and onX App on iPhone clearly shows it as "Soulen Livestock Co." I find it interesting that the onX web page doesn't (and I used my desktop to build the GPX).
So looking further north to the intersection at 44.21405, -116.58450 also shows that trail/rd is owned by Soulen Livestock Co so I would expect a Private Property sign there as well. Now that I think about it, was that sign "Private Property" or was there some other indication of "No Trespassing" also. Maybe "Private Property" also means "No Trespassing" inherently??
So if I look South and to the West, I see an approach via "Paddock Ch" rd/trail and also see "Paddock Valley Rd" that go up to #18 marker. However, those both come in by crossing private land of "Sutton Steven B" at 44.16768, -116.61344.
Does anyone know a good route to get to #18?
thanks

Hello, it looks like sites 40 and 41 are both the Yellowpine pit? I hit Yellowpine today but couldn't make it up to Stibnite due to the snow. Noticed it when I tried to log it. Thanks
@davebracht They are two different sites. The pit might still be inaccessible. 40 is Yellow Pine Pit which is up higher, and 41 is just Yellowpin in town.
@crane550 If I click on 40 and 41 they both show 40 the pit. I assume 41 is the sign in town. Try clicking on the sites 40 and 41
Challenge points 40 and 41 are 8 miles apart as the crow flies.
@kaptslow I understand where they are. The issue is if you try to log them they both show as the pit #40. It's a website entry error? Click on them like you are trying to log in and see. #40 and #41
@kaptslow I tried getting to the pit. Made it to about mile marker 2 on the Stibnite road and hit a sheet of ice. Had to turn back. Its maintained for travel just not for 2 wheelers just yet.
@davebracht Ah, got it. Looks like both links on the list took you to Yellow Pine Pit. Thanks for pointing that out. It's fixed now.
