Mountain biking

This was the first time I had ever done "real" downhill mountain biking. On one run I took the water bladder out of my hydration back and used the case to stow my camera so I could get a few pictures. These don't really do it justice - it's really high, with very steep sections and the trails are really curvy.

Fortunately, the weather was very cooperative. It was a lot of fun!

Here's the mountain as viewed from the car on the way in. Look at the other cars in the picture for an idea of the scale.






Here are the bikes on the lift in front of us:
