When a family trip home for the long weekend, turns into a FKT opportunity across the border. We left the kiddos with their grandparents, drove to a rest stop to sleep, and started our mixed-gender FKT on this beautiful loop. We began at 6:50am, to try to minimize our exposure to the heat wave we're experiencing.
I (Chantal) has never been on this trail, but Jamieson has. We downloaded the gpx on our watches and enjoyed the run together. The trail wasn't technical, but there are punchy climbs along the way. We saw multiple other runners, hikers and mountain bikers enjoying the trail as well.
After finishing the loop, we changed into our bathing suits and enjoyed cooling off in Silver Lake!!
**if you haven't been on this trail, I do recommend having the gpx file. It is not marked and would be confusing if you didn't have anything to reference.**
