Yes, it could have been easier to have just driven up the access road, but where's the fun in that, besides 2 hours and a bunch of climbing later this



view is much more enjoyable than it would have been if I drove to the spot. That body of water in the background is Round Valley and that is where I usually ride at. I was at a different State Park that was 20 miles away from the main entrance at RV. If you're wandering yes I am very stiff right now. Oh and this was another state property that is just 5 minutes away again, notice the body of water.



Look through the trees.

I did a trip gauge when driving back and it hit 20 miles a little before I got to the main entrance at Round Valley. There is no direct route to Round Valley from where I was, the closest way is 20 miles.

dilly dallying, I wish I could have.

Spectacular view, Good job on the climb! I'm so out of shape right now, don't think I could climb 15 mins
