10 AM
Hiking 1:05:00 [1]
shoes: Salomon Crossmax Green
Bash and I headed out of the desert and up the La Sal mountains. What a change to be wearing gloves, hat and micro spikes. We had a good hike up to 10 800 feet in the snow and trees, but Geyser Pass is still in the forest so not much view at the top. The drive up was pretty scenic though.
11 AM
Running 55:00 [1]
shoes: Salomon Crossmax Green
Easy run back down. Some post-holing in the soft snow.
3 PM
Cycling 1:40:00 [3]
Sovereign and Saltwash Flats trails with Harps and Bash.
Interesting area- bit of a moonscape with undulating rocky ridges and lots of dusty sand. Saltwash wasn't very 'Bent friendly, with loose sand and tight switchbacks, along with sketchy rocky and dusty climbs that I often had to push the 'bent up. Harps schooled us in this area, and had to wait for us a fair bit.
Luckily, the way back on Soverign was much better. Good flow, much nicer rocks and less sand made for a technical but fun finish.
