Case Mt - 08/21/09

Did a solo run at Case this afternoon, boy was it hot and muggy out there. With in 5 minutes I was soaked. Anyway, started from Line St, did the climb about 1.2 way up and then followed the directions i got on CF to the stunt trail. Being alone I didn't hit to much, but I was able to do several rollers I wussed out on last year.So that made me happy.

Something just came up, will finish this later

edit: So I followed the stunt trail and it eventually hooked up towards the bottom of the red trail. I followed the red trail down and then hung a right onto the yellow/grey trail. I have only ridden the YG trail in the opposite direction (down) and it was really a challenge riding up. One endless rockgarden would be a way to describe it. Followed that and then hooked up with the bluw trail to the red trail all the way down to the car. Did about 6 miles, and with the heat, humidity and rocks it felt like 12. Good stuff.

Took a few pictures of some of the stuff on the stunt trail, will try to post them up later.

As promised here are some pictures from yesterdays rode. I was going to take more but the bugs were brutal and I wanted to limit my stops.


Skinny / drop. Just getting in this thing look impossible

Side view

The end

Looks pretty easy to me

Tricky up- took me several tries to make it up this things........about 7 or 8…..its steep

The back side of the previous pic……I wasn’t planning on riding down, but I was so happy to finally make it up the rock I went for it. I took the far side with the rock pile.

Practicing for tomorrows ride? Sorry I won't be able to make it.

Practicing for tomorrows ride? .

yes and no.....maybe

I only hit that rock in the pic and one other roller. I scoped out a bunch of things I wussed out on last year and most looked pretty do-able. Actually easier than most of the things I rode at Lynn Woods. But being alone I decided to be smart and wait until I was with someone. I really just wanted to find this trail, its not on the map and kind of hard to find. Turns out I have ridden the the entrance a bunch of times and never noticed. I don't think it gets much traffic.
