We did it! Alice and I rode every one of the 109 miles of the George Mickelson Trail. This was a memorable experience. Although, would have to say, that last 4 miles through the open hills of sage brush, was a tiny bit of forever... The trail offered at every moment a sense of discovery. So remote at times, full of wildlife, canyons, multitude of ecosystems, from high mountain forests to prairies, truly an experience to involve all the senses. Oh yes, a bit of resolve through the miles of climbs rewarded by the joy of coasting even farther. The trail surface required vigilance. A lax moment and a wrong placement of a tire could buck you right off the trail. If you have a notion to experience this trail, it comes with high recommendations.
Not many pictures from the trail, busy hanging on to handle bars ... :D. We do have some of our home for 7 days, Hot Springs, and Crazy Horse monument. Enjoy!
Mile post zero!
Our new home...
Tomorrow more exploration! Be sure to read on. Cheers!
