The latest reports suggested that there was a temporary bridge put up at Dawson Creek, making the river passable, so we headed out to explore the Jumpingpound/Cox loop. Last year's flood and this past week's rain had messed a bit with the terrain. The south end climb was tricker than usual and the rocky section that followed was more hollowed out than usual, but other than that it wasn't bad. We had to cross three snow patches on foot, but they really looked like they may be on their last legs. We had stunning views and awesome climbing. The scariest part of the day was when we passed a guy dressed in all black, pointing a rifle in front of him!?! He looked quite intimidating and completely out of place. If there had been mobile coverage in there I would have called in to report him, just to at least have someone check it out. Maybe it was all cool and 'allowed', but I sure felt like it was kind of crazy and it kind of freaked me out!

Fun day with a fun gang, CO, C-Bass, Revy, Wakkie, Big Fish and Becca. As the rains have made a mess of West Bragg we modified our plans and rode the never disappointing Minnie. We managed to ride most of it before running into some crowds. Continued up to Tunnel Mountain and rode Star Wars, Return of the Jedi and Topp Notch. my back wasn't feeling great and towards the end I didn't like pushing it. It was still a superb day.

The past two nights wrapped up my 10 week hockey clinics. It's nice to get those evenings opened up now so that I can enjoy outdoor activities. I have to come up with a training plan so that I survive the TDMB road ride with the Annecy gang!
