Downhill Mountain Biking
Garnet Mountain in the Gallatin Canyon is a about 4 miles to the top, and about 20 minutes to get down. We pushed up this last week and had an amazing ride down. These shots are from the hike up.
That above turn is literally on a cliff. There are some switchbacks on this trail that one could lose their bike on if going too fast.
It's beautiful exploring all the different angles of this area, and how they all connect though hiking and biking trails. It's always an adventure with exploration, and with the chance encounters with wildlife can make everything more interesting. Large moose move like dinosaurs i think...
A few days ago Rob and I built a bridge with our day off. It was great, just being outside building something on a sunny day. I got a great sunburn im still dealing with.
Just bought a new bike also, well new to me at least. Work is work, and the mountain just opened with lift service for downhill riding. It should be a good summer. I'm doing some research on some extended backpacking trips in the are to take a long weekend with. Anyone interested in visiting should get into it, because the weather is amazing, theres not too many bugs, and it doesnt get dark until around 10pm.
That's it for now....
