    This is just a short report of my today's ride

    I started in Buenna Vista and vent over Cottonwood pass.
    Took 414 Timberline trail south. Trail was mostly clear with some trees over trail. Got some trail work done.
    Got above tree line and went trough some snow spots. Nothing hard till I got to big patch of snow. I manage go around.
    Then the fun started. Trees on trail. But about 10 of them in one spot. I did not have chain saw so it took me around 30 min to clear it little bit.
    I had to drag my bike over couple of them.
    Next was Tincup pass. Couple of weeks ago I did try it from St. Elmo side, but with no luck. This time from the other side. I got to the top, but on other side was section about 200 meters of snow.
    I tryed push my bike trought, but id did not work.
    I had to go back to Taylor park.
    On my way back to BV I did some trails around Taylor park outpost.
    I got to Texas creek, but did not cross it.
    Not bad Wednesday ride. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/06/20/ve3a9umy.jpg[/IMG
