    Those are great pics!!!

    Very cool to see the kind of terrain that you guys ride. Some of those rock gardens look pretty tough.

    Keep the pics coming.
    I want a 6" travel 20lb MTB. I found the 20lb MTB, but only good for riders under 87 pounds.

    We definitely had a blast, and it's not over yet. *Snif* I'm getting all nostalgic.

    As for the snow, it was sorta off the beaten path. The main trail was behind that hill. We had dropped into this little meadow with an amazing view and saw the snow field behind us. There were a couple of tracks through the snow, mainly from dirt bikes though. No MTB tracks from what I could tell. I just had to hit it.

    The thunder mtn to horse canyon loop was about 11 miles.

    Nice pics. Looks much different than the riding we do around here.... ahhh so many cool places to ride, so little time and money to do it with....but if I had the money I would make the time.

    Once again awesome pics!
