We had a great ride, I think 10 of us.

We tried our fun little shuttle concept, and it worked out good. We dropped off at the Green Ponds Trailhead, and landed at the bottom of Wheeler Creek. We rode via Icebox Canyon, my favorite section of the run.

I'm not sure how many miles it was, maybe 6? But riding time was only about 20 minutes, so we did it twice. :2thumbs:

The driving time from bottom to top was only about 10 minutes, going from the Dam, up Trappers Loop, and then turning towards Snowbasin.

Don broke his chain on the last run, luckily all downhill. Nate got a flat, and Clint took a minor tumble. The Target bike held up ok. :mrgreen:

I've only got one or two pics, but video'd both runs.
