had a 15-18 mph tailwind behind me so hardly pedaled through that stretch. the pictured “rollers” stretch is almost exactly a .5 mile so it’s longer than the phone cam depicts the scene.

Mostly Monitor, there are a couple other pictures in that stack of other areas around Markleeville.

Speaking of Monitor, this may be from an angle you've never seen:

definitely not an angle i've seen. drove up to lake tahoe approx 6 years ago via the 395 and monitor pass and through markleeville enroute to the lake. only able to do two, 30-mile rides nearish the lake...no time to hit any of the various death ride passes. from san diego driving, tough to make it up to yosemite, much less tahoe. hopefully someday soonish but not holding my breath.

My last post is from the top of Leviathan peak, which is the peak that Monitor pass skirts around.

Just think how your life would have changed if you lived in the Death Valley basin.
