Another beautiful day in Frisco. This area has arts events going on all summer long. This weekend there was a Guitar Town at Copper Mtn., Keystone had theatre, in Dillon we could have listened to Blue Grass and tonight in Frisco was Booker T plus two other bands in concert.
So this morning I did laundry and then we took off on the bikes for Copper Mountain Ski Resort. Not necessarily to listen to the music (which was very good) but for the challenge of going UP the mountain so that we could coast down later. It was a long ride up, about 7.5 miles from Frisco (plus the 3 miles it took us to get to the trail). If it weren't for the sights along the way, such as the river, wild raspberries and rock climbers, it would have been a grueling bike ride. There was a fund-raising bike ride in the Summit area so there were lots of bikers -- all of them passing us! But this ride was what we expected -- up hill all the way so that we did not have to pedal coming back. We rode for 21 miles round trip.
Tomorrow we will head to Taylor Lake and meet up with the Born Free group of Jeepers for a week of off-roading. The campground is out in the middle of nowhere so we will not have internet nor maybe cell phone. I will blog when I can get an internet connection and let you know about all our exciting adventures on the Jeep trails.
