I'm sure many of you guys can guess where this is at. We just got back from the Whites and stopped to take the kids on the steam train at Clark's. Its been years since I road a live steamer, and I think this is my first time ever riding a wood fired live steamer :)

Think they need to season their wood better? :)

Surprisingly it wasn't so bad when we ere there, 50F at the top and the winds only about 25-40mph. Totally fogged in by cloud though.


Oh and I forgot to add one for the green room. The new biodiesel cog came up right after the steamer:

For sure the steamer is pre-EPA. That is a real smoker.
 
Auto road, fun, ha! ;lol
I've seen drivers locked right up with fear refusing to drive any further.
Done it three times on the bike, made it to th re top twice, they turned us around due to weather.
