Rd 2. Absolute STUNNER of a trail. Rough sledding at start. Heaps of ankle busters. Lost the track a few times amidst it all (can get pretty faint at times). Once you're climbing boy you are climbing. Was hoping to snatch the ascent too, but Strava dude flew up that thing. My getting turned around, having to pull out phone/route... Anyhow. Last time I hit the thing late in the afternoon. Midway up my headlamp (only light on a black night) went out. Barely made it off the hill alive. Here. Beautiful midday, sun lit fun, a tad brisk towards top. SKY FIRE 2 's FTW, they've REALLY been holding up for some longer stuff in spite of their lightness, and the underfoot plate has kept my tootsies from getting thrashed (somehow). 12 oz Salomon soft flash, Naked belt, phone, GTG.
