Even on an ebike, Ben Lomond peak was an absolute bear of a task. But I wouldn't have made it otherwise with all that camera gear.
The administrators from Weber High School paid me for a video gig on the hike up. It went great, although I really wish I could have seen the mountain goats.

And before any of the hypocrisy starts about how ebikes don't belong on the trail

:lol8: The hikers got progressively less and less enthusiastic as the video wore on. That hike to Ben Lomond peak is not easy. How long did it take ya'll btw?

You could hit the peak in maybe 3 hours, 1 way. We took a while, I set up multiple video shoots on the way up. Biking down only took me 30 minutes, they did about 2 hours hiking.

Here's some of my ride down, I rode right past the white mountain goats and didn't notice them. That really sucked.
