I guess summer is upon us. We got down most of the trail in daylight, with twilight colors and darkness setting in at the rest stop on the concrete road. Just Ckucke, Root, JT, and me again – Chris should be back next week, since it was the last night of birthing class. Dropped into upper dumps for a change, but there was a lot of deadfall leaning into the trail and one big, old ironwood that had to be limboed under. Somewhere up on the side of the park access road was a dead thing – it could be smelled out into the neighborhood. Nothing bad-smelling or dead on the trail. At agave, climbed up to the normal out line and descended. The original D/H trail has been recut, and there looks to be some work being done on the trail that heads out to the point (the “right” off the mainline that is the alternate choice for the “left” to the old ladder trail). Must check some of that out next time…
Ride time of 27-min. with a distance of 3.87-miles. Vavr was 8.5 mph. Vmax was 18.6 mph on the trail – rather slow this time. Too many photo-op stops…
