Sence my riding buddy has been laid up after his accident I have been out mostly on solo
rides. He is getting better and has even returned to work part time. I can tell you guys
it is more enjoyable to ride with some friends and more safe. Left in the morning and returned in
the afternoon. Took the old hwy up to the Mt.Ashland Ski area, this is just north of Calif.
by a couple of miles. The ski runs minus the snow.



Mt.Shasta Calif. to my south.

Sorry for all the smoke in the valleys, but the fires wont be out till it rains

The parking lot for the lodge is a popular spot for mountain bikes and hikers in the off season.

the back of the summitt

follow the ridge line for 10 more miles and I come to Dutchmans Peak look out.

Erin is spending her 6th summer at the Look out.

From the center of this pic on the horizon is my next stop on one of the bald ****


25 years ago I used to fly hanggliders here.
Now it is mostly paragliders.

Thanks for sharing mate. Beautiful scenery you've got there.
Add some skis to those paragliders and try some of this. Truly extreme.
