	DAY 4: We came over the hill on the Brewton Gulch road (notice the switchbacky road above Helge's head) and zigzagged down Tarpsican creek. We saw coyotes and a herd of elk.
	Alex ran out of gas again! It's only seven miles on pavement to the gas station (in Malaga). Rather than mix up some more gas, Chris breaks out his TowDowns. TowDowns are a pair of packable tiedowns that connect to form a 12 foot towstrap. They got lazy and towed with only one section (six feet). Sloth turned to bravery as Alex continued to give the thumbs-up at 50 mph. Photo © Helge Pedersen.
	What a view! On Forest road 8100. It's thirty miles from from Manson to Safety Harbor trail. Chris is twisting it, Helge's looking back towards Lake Chelan. Photo © Helge Pedersen.
	The first log, South Navarre trail. Forging ahead over logs such as this is very difficult. If there are enough people in the group to get you over logs like this, then there are also enough to outvote you.
	Another log.
	South Navarre trail. Back on the bikes!

	End of DAY4: Alex the German (a Frankfurter eating a hotdog).
