Sunday, July 18, 2010 - Another Ride Day

Well, we decided to take the ranger's suggestion, so we headed east back toward the trailhead he recommended. It was, in fact, a lot less rocky, though there were still sections that were pretty bad. Again, the trail climbed and climbed and climbed. After about 90 minutes of that, we just stopped, had lunch, and then descended, descended, descended again. There were a few beautiful views on the way, and it was more pleasant than the previous ride, but still not quite the kind of trails we prefer. Spent the late afternoon getting ready to leave in the morning. It's a very shor trip, only about 60 miles, but we have a few stops on the way.
