Monday was a big ride up to Lac Vert and then we continued up to where Derek and I added on the extra credit loop up to some tiny little village that I can’t remember the name of. This is at the base of that climb which was very very steep. Granny gear climbing for 30 minutes at least.

The descent after that was downright dangerous in spots and then opened up into a rip roaring section that was truly a blast. It was overcast again and dark in the forested sections so I didn’t’ take many riding pictures.









I know this one is a bit blurry, but it at least shows what most of the descent looked like. Obviously it is steeper in real life



We named the new section of trail we took that afternoon McSketch. It was a steep twisty leafy descent with plenty of rooty fun that everyone loved. As we neared the valley floor it broke out in a downpour. That was the only day we shutteled back to the Chalet.
