Question: How far can you tilt a Westy Syncro before it falls over? (Not that I've ever been anywhere close) Photo taken near Lander, Wyoming. URL:http://www.gj.net/~bhkraft/leanover.jpg Syncroad: Near Elk City, Idaho, this is the start of the Magruder Corridor through two huge wilderness areas. Most of those 113 miles are single lane dirt, but I didn't need the crawler gear or difflock.

The road ends at a high meadow known as the "Golf Course" and a trail leads from there up the Stillwater Plateau to Lake Wilderness and Mt. Wood. URL:http://www.gj.net/~bhkraft/stillh2o.jpg One of those gnarly campsites on the edge of a cliff with a great view. This spot is on Bald Ridge northwest of Cody, Wyoming. Crawler gear and difflock required to get up there.

I saw no 4-wheel vehicles on the road, only mountain bikes. A road for Syncros to avoid!
