Recon

Yesterday, Dave and I headed up high for some recon on Donner Pass and the surrounding area. It was a fun day of, pushing through snow, hike-a-bikes, snow, fog, and good trails.

We started off with some climbing.

Then we found some snow.

Higher yet.

Things got steeper and deeper.

Coming back down - some spots were deeper than others, sometimes we made it through, sometimes not.

More descending.

On one of the descents Dave overcooked a corner and nearly hit a tree before endo-ing to a stop at then edge of a little drop off - Check out his skid mark in the photo!


Another good weekend in the books.
