|
|
In the midst of all the greyhair biker talk it was hard to think about where to ride next week. Not to mention if we even wanted to after seeing the carnage left on the trail in Draper. Everybody was a little skittish after seeing that. :eek2:
I figured Dog Lake was a good option and we can hit the crest next time. I even looked up my sign picture to make sure I had the correct day. See you in the parking lot at 6. We could possibly meet at the park n' ride too.

Yes, out and back trail, there is an option down that is a bit more extreme if you are into that. As far a technical I would call it just a little bit harder than Mueller. |

But if you go next Tuesday it will be an odd day and you can’t ride the crest.

You could do that. The Big Cottonwood side is fun. But in my opinion it is much more technical to descend down Big rather than Mill. Also my favorite part of the crest is where you drop off the ridge into Upper Millcreek.
But really my opinion doesn’t really matter because I will not be riding with you guys. But I will be a helper rather than a hater. If you all decide to ride the Crest whatever day I can come and provide shuttle support. I can fit four riders and four bikes comfortably, five if you really want to cram.
