Gooseberry Mesa

I can't let this slip by without a post. We camped at Gooseberry Mesa in Utah on our way to Park City for the race.

(Thanks for leaving a pile of firewood for the next guy--It was great since we rolled in at aroud 2:30 AM and didn't have any light to find wood.)

The riding was epic as expected. It's one of those incredibly unique places that only all the right people know about it, so that even though it's famous for what it is (incredible mountain biking), it's still completely isolated and empty of the crowds. We saw no one on any of the trails the whole 3 1/2 hours we rode that day. And it wouldv'e been totally cool to see people because they only would've been cool adventurous mountain bikers.



The terrain is so unique, you would never find anything like it except in Utah. It just awesome! Makes me see how much I need to work on my technical skills!





Some of the local wildlife.

Lyle's pretty skilled on catching these fast animals on camera! Here's from the drive back home:

Anyways, that's it for Gooseberry. Definitely a place we'll go to again!
