Kent, me, Statton, Taylor, and Ben did the Bearclaw poppy trail again. It’s been a few months since Taylor, Ben and I did it. I spend half of the night saying to myself "don't chicken out, don't chicken out." before I know it, it was 3:00am after Kent got lost a few weeks back we decided to take him down the right way.

I don't know about Kent but I looked at my GPS track log and I have a few circles in it. :lol8: But I eventually committed to dropping in. as did Kent. The rest... well the rest are mountain bike rock star wanabes and took the easy way out.

Other than that I don't have much to say so I'll let some of the very blurry pics do the talking.



Ride on :ride:,
Dave

Man, the three fingers of death sure look wimpy in pictures...definitely not what I was thinking from the top :)

Great ride, thanks for setting it up Dave. Oh and yes I had several circles in my track log :)

When riding down the 3 fingers of death you can see where you are headed. The acid drops are what get me every time. I even broke a seat post once. I was going too fast, caught air and flat landed at the bottom. I will be staying in Ivins during Thanksgiving, I will be planning on doing some riding around that area
