Killing me! I'm sitting at my computer doing F-ing work that I couldn't get away from, wishing I was in the mountains, escaping the work.

I don't know a lot about fishing, but that's a big ass fish.

Another awesome trip on the books and we had probably the best weather from my recent memory. We had two groups on Thursday, Friday and a smaller group on saturday. This trip was very special for Isabelle and me as she drove herself in her own vehicle. She was so tickled and it was all smiles ear to ear the entire time .

I don't know if my girl understands consequences or even has any fear of rollovers but she cleaned Black Bear pass like a boss. She didn't need any spotting and didn't even wait for me to walk back up the hill after I traversed the sketchy section of black bear. Think I'm going to have to instill some fear into this teenager

Thank you everyone for making this trip a success by contributing to the Daily morning meetings and helping me with guiding everyone around safely.

I will post up the album link after I have a chance to go through all the pictures!

Isabelle made short work of the Black Bear pass sketchy section, didn't even wait for me to spot her down

While the girls slept, I rode a trail right near Silverton. Most of it was good except for this skinny traverse across the scree field.

Did some riding on the trail from Molas pass to Engineer pass, didn't make it to the top.
