Recovering nicely from almost a week straight of riding all day and "vacationing" all night to take the edge off...notice it is almost noon!
Coronary bypass surgery at the trailhead is always a bad omen, this one was almost DOA.
One of these kids is doing his own thing...
Aaron grinding up some fresh Tiger Mtn. ...tiger sausage anyone??
Lions and Tiger Mountain and bears...oh, my!

Aaron with a deep thought next to a shallow river.
Someone is missing his helmet...must have left it up on 3-Corner Rock.
Messing with Sasquatch!!
Running from something...
The descent has begun, there were spots where we were swimming through the foliage and could barely see the trail at all...with a sheer drop off on the right/left side depending on which part of the switchback you were on.
One last look around...you can just make out the trail on the lower right of the center road.
Aaron is chomping at the bit to begin our descent...then ascent...then some more descent...followed by the final ascent and then the final descent back to the trailhead. Lost track of the elevation gain/loss.

The view is AMAZING!!!
Began at 8:00am and reached this point around 1:00pm, felt like more than 20 miles!
Only five or so switchbacks to go...then climb to the top of the rock, can you say STEEP??
To the trail head in true VW style...got lights, just need the siren! Thanks Eric!
