Video and pics of the forest where we ride
After we thawed out this morning, the sun came out and I couldn't resist an afternoon ride on the KLX. Nearly froze to death but that's half the adventure. Brought the digi and snapped some pics of the waterfall, creeks, and the woods in Camp Livingston, in the Kisatchie National Forest where we ride.
If you wanna Google Earth Camp Livingston, the coordinates are: 31°26′39″N 92°21′44″W / 31.444244, -92.362232 (Camp Livingston)

Standing over the waterfall. This is actually Little Creek; the Army built this drainage canal for the camp, obviously, and when the camp closed and they removed the bridge, this waterfall kinda, happened. Pretty neat to me that the creek was there, they "tamed" it, and now it has taken back over. Kinda the whole theme of the entire place, I find that very interesting.
Looking from the main road (FS 145)
Little Creek further south, where one of the main bridges was removed. Forest Service road C100E if you're looking at a map
Standing in Beaver Creek. This is due east of the previous picture, on the same road. Second "missing" bridge. Notice the footing for the pylons. Looking north.
Again standing in Beaver Creek, maybe 70 yards upstream, looking back downstream (south)
I think its just so majestic being in the forest in the late afternoon. Maybe its the inner redneck in me, IDK.
I have a bunch more, they're on my Facebook/Myspace, I just don't wanna clog up the bandwidth of KF and my Photobucket account.
