Looks like a nice trail, Jim.  Very scenic, and some fun, interesting stuff to ride over to keep it interesting.  Thanks for the pics.  Were the rocky sections much rougher than the pictures show? Doable with a full-suss bike?

I have to travel down that way in mid-September, and I'm thinking I might toss my bike in the back of the truck to ride some of the trails there.  Perhaps you could point me to a couple of your favourites....?

Say, how are your new tires working out on the terrain down there? If I recall, you put the Kenda SB-8's on your bike and Lynn's too? Replacing the Karmas...correct? How are you finding their grip on rocks and roots? I need to get some new rubber for our youngest daughter's bike (an XC hard tail) to give her better rolling resistance, and those are high on my list to look at.  Just not sure about how they would handle that kind of terrain, which we also have a lot of here on our single track.  Let me know how they are performing for you...

Cheers!
