Thanks, yep it was fun but COLD! Learned the KM2's don't hook up well when it's below freezing. Even aired down to 10 lbs they struggled to grip rock well.

If you haven't been in a few years, it's worth checking out again -- it is probably twice or three times bigger than it was 3 years ago, lots of new trails and areas to explore!

nice pics!

thats good to know about the KM2s. I'll check out the new section again in the spring. We hit it this past Easter and it wasn't developed yet but I've been hearing good things.

we were up there on Black Friday. thankfully the day changed from rain & fog to semi-blue skies. apart from a TJ breaking a front lower CA in half it was a good day.

Yeah, but in the winter time you can run YellowJacket safely :)

Nov there was my first winter/cold weather camping trip. Well before onsite camping facilities, the comp courses, or the new sections of land...
