YEEHAWWWW 🤠 Guillermo’s FIRST FKT!!!

What a day! What a glorious Type 2 kind of fun!

10/10 would recommend… with a few friendly disclaimers:

  • Maybe don’t do it after it’s rained an absolute butt-ton.

  • Maybe don’t start it in sauna-mode humidity

  • Maybe emotionally prepare for mud

First water isn’t until mile 13, with the next refill down at the bottom of Canyon in Reinhardt.

The opening miles on Rampage were less "runnable singletrack" and more "slip-n-slide with livestock spectators." The mud was thick!

Most climbs were walked!
Some strategically.
Some spiritually.

There was generous route-finding, a couple minor detours, plenty of stopping to soak in the views, and 3 bathroom breaks.

Ran into Trey around Rancho Laguna! Huge thanks to Chris for dreaming up and recommending this spicy little number, and to Patrick for scouting Willow View Trail — confirmed passable.

Overall, ~chill~ long day out with lots of time on feet! Now we patiently await a squad of women to absolutely tear this thing down!!!
