Most certainly not. Just some DH guys I ran into.
Although I am itching to try that drop on my Yammy.

My son and I did the Crest trail on Saturday. We started at 6:30 AM to avoid the heat. It had rained a bit the night before and the trail was perfect, no dust and not muddy. My son made it up Scott's Pass hill without stopping but I had to stop and walk a few times. Great ride if you haven't done it.

Love the Wasatch Crest! If Scotts Pass hill is that first big hill on the dirt road, I've always heard it called upchuck hill. It's more than I can do all at once - without upchucking, that is!

 

[sixstringsteve]

I've been dying to do that trail.

 

[WayneXJ]

I've done the Crest a couple times in the last few weeks, I love it. I used www.bigrackshuttle.com to get me to guardsman pass, not bad if you don't have a way to shuttle yourself.

 

[sixstringsteve]

how long does the ride typically take?

 

[WayneXJ]

I did it in 2 hrs from guardsman pass to the mouth of millcreek, they say it's about 24 miles.

 

[Unimog]

I typically take 3-4 hours with a snack break up on top and some playing around on the pipeline trail. Come down Rattlesnake Gulch. I'm not very fast - even downhill!

 

[sixstringsteve]

i'm thinking about riding tonight as long as the smoke isn't too bad.

 

[Kevin B.]

Where were you thinking? I owe my boy a ride.

 

[sixstringsteve]

i was thinking maple hollow downhill in corner canyon or af canyon. However, if it ends up being just you and me, we could hit lambert for a mild, kid-paced ride.

 

[nnnnnate]

What time are you guys thinking about heading out?

 

[sixstringsteve]

Around 645 at corner canyon. I'll be riding at a quick pace today, sorry key and boogerface.

 

[nnnnnate]

I'll be riding at a quick pace today.

Don't think I could keep up, maybe next time.

 

[sixstringsteve]

Have you been offroad yet? I'm not a quick climber, but I can go downhill pretty quickly. We should organize a slower ride sometime.

 

[nnnnnate]

Yeah, I did a trail in the foothills a bit ago, bobsled I think it was? I was just looking at maple hollow in skid map and another site and it looks more than I would want to attempt. I've finished my big house project so my weeknights are free and I'm going to try and get out a bit more. Bike commuting slowed during the project as well but I'm getting back into it.

What are some of the decent moderate trails at corner canyon I ought to check out? I've been to lambert but I think cc is going to be a fair amount closer for me which means more accessible. I've never been there so I need to read more about it but would love some recommendations.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I'm not riding maple hollow. I'll be riding anne's, potato hill, and rattlesnake, all fairly easy. You're welcome to join us if you think you can keep up.

 

[WayneXJ]

I might have to show up, where are you starting from?
