Rites of Spring


Sunday, second day of spring, same start, different end. Today I went alone as I tend to do. Highs were high with almost 60 at the ranch so I had to find some shade and protection from the wind up high. I had the motivation (with the help of a quad-shot espresso morning) to run up to Prospector Glades and eek out some soft turns in the middle two gullys. It was surprisingly good, if short, on elevation loss. But as Donny put it the other day "this place is great if you're an athlete" or something like that. Said another way, "This place sure has a ton of uphill!" It feels like you climb more than you descend here, which is just fine with me because of the solitude I achieve at my lunch spots. Yep, gotta love the Mo-Fat funnel.
