I don't know how much hiking she'd want to do with your son, but she could go across the street to Reservoir #6 and hike up to Heublein Tower on Talcott mountain if she wanted. That's a fun little hike.

A number of possibilities.

The Approach:


Mid-fall:


Ass Up!


Look how far forward you are in that first one. No wonder you wrecked. Good on ya for trying though. I sure as hell wouldn't have on my first day on the bike. You have the sack necessary for MTBing that's for sure....

After reviewing the video a little closer Chris probably would of landed that if he didn't have that gaper come out of nowhere riding up the trail causing him to scrub all his speed.

Was a picture perfect fall though!
