On the 01 heading towards the highest point of the Paiute Trail.
Umm.... Unlike New England, the snows at 11,000 ft. don't necessarily melt. We went another mile or so and ran into a group coming back down saying they ran into drifting snow just over the summit. We were getting pretty cold so we headed back down into the nice warm valley. Sad part is I had a winter jacket and flannel lined jeans packed..... back at the cabin.
Looking back at the peaks from the warmer valley floor.
Moose One in the distance, Paul Sr. a little closer.

Heading home. Some last looks at the San Rafael Swell. Moose One's steed in the background making sure I don't take my eyes off the road too long.
More of the San Rafael Swell as we had home.
One last look before we leave the Swell heading towards the Rockies.
Up into the Rockies. Some snow at the higher elevations.

Great pics Moose. Looks like some really scenic trails. Probably a little more difficult than pics show, pics always make trails look easier but trails don't have to challenging to be fun to ride. I like the idea of renting a cabin too if I were ever to go out there. I've camped some in the past but having an actual roof over your head is something I would prefer now.

I didn't feel as good physically this year as the last two visits. Had a lot of stomach issues that slowed me down. Was rainy too. I don't mind rain when it's hot out but when it's in the 50's I won't go out as much. So, it was good to have the cabin to relax in. Even watched a football game on Thursday night.
