Today the group of people who arrived early were feeling feisty and decided to hit Black Bear Pass right off the bat. Yellocoyote, Strikeagle, kskj, Red, and myself took off into the threatening cloudsto check it out.
Right off the bat the trail starts to gain altitude...
The lineup....
Yellocoyote growing accustomed to the shelf roads... just like back home.
Red flexes out his big TJ.
Some of the smaller obstacles.
Dropping down the back side of the pass..... starting to get interesting...
Red hiding behind some bushes...
Yellocoyote on the bottom of "the steps".... it's hairy up there...
More shelf roads...
And lots of switchbacks... lots and lots...
Mining debris...
The group ready to head into Telluride for some awesome lunch...
Stay tuned for tomorrow's update from the trail!!!
