Day 3 down near Los Gatos
|
|
 |
We've got the routine down by now!
|
|
 |
gee, are we at the right place?!
|
|
 |
there are the trails - if you can see them!
|
|
 |
basically ride up to the ridge and drop down wherever you like!
|
|
 |
that's John in the back - he's our ride leader, standing in for Brett
|
|
 |
gate to the ridge after grinding out the black top and fireroad
|
|
 |
time to head on up the ridge!
|
|
 |
nothing like checking where you are!
|
|
 |
Desi and Mark contemplate the route
|
|
 |
somewhere out there is the ocean to the north
|
|
 |
that's John's friend John from Texas
|
|
 |
still can't decide on the route!
|
|
 |
John checks on Desi's progress (note he changed his attire for the downhill!)
|
|
 |
John is rather fast on these trails - he knows them well!
|
|
 |
the trails are all made with materials from within the forest
|
|
 |
Desi is cautious of hidden tree roots!
|
|
 |
She's picking up speed now!
|
|
 |
Pete contemplating the downhill
|
|
 |
group shot before some left early to prepare for Yosemite!
|
|
 |
You don't get many great views in the forest!
|
|
 |
the trails are idyllic though
|
|
 |
packing up, some for the Tractor downhill and some for the more technical Saw Pit
|
|
 |
this beats 'Sherwood Forest' near Space Mountain!
