24 gorge of intimidation
My riding buddy, Tony and I decided to take a chance on a new trail.
I'm not typically afraid of heights, nor do I mind boulders or sheer ascents, but this trail put them all together.
Tony is standing on flat part of the trail, but you can see that the 300 foot drop off is less than a bike length away from the trail. On the other side of him is the mountainside. I actually put my bike down and climbed up for this shot.
The tough part was trying to navigate this narrow passage while traversing steep climbs riddled with rocks and boulders.
Total distance was only 10 miles, but it took us 2.5 hours with a total climb of 1,713 feet.
Altogether, this trail was so much fun, with fantastic, scenic views and a great flowy downhill.
Now I need to find me something chocolaty to eat, cause I earned it.
