Ahhhhh, that tastes good.

This is what happens when you try to take a stockish Samuria up Pritchett Canyon

Most of the wheeling is right around the town. There is many campgrounds with cabins and hotels, very tourist friendly place. You can hire guides or just head out on your own. We ran all red (difficult) trails and most weren't that difficult but could really mess you up if you aren't paying attention. There are easy and moderate trails and the views are spectacular.

We hooked up with some locals that showed us the cool stuff and proper lines.

Very friendly place. We will be going back.

Good stuff, thx Sheldon. We had planned on going back again this year but.... reality got in the way. I could spend a couple of months a year in the Southwest, so much to see and do.

At least we can live the dream vicariously via you and others. Thx for sharing

Ya, I wanna get back there next year. Was planning a trip into BC, but that may have to wait.

Ya, that was kinda funny, everyone was yelling "don't move stay there we need pictures" So he stayed there and then said "OK, everyone got their pics yet?" in a 'I wanna get 'er back down on all fours' tone.

Golden Crack on Golden Spike trail. Mild to wild can make it through. Notice the Colorado river in the background and oh ya, the huge storm rolling in. We got soaked about an hour after these pics where taken. Thankfully we were on top of the land and not in a canyon where the flash flooding was happening.











Launch Pad, yes it really is that steep. You have to tell yourself that lots of people have driven it and your not going over backwards.
