| Day 1 - Sunday
  
    | We followed a route from Salida North towards Buena Vista using
a route sheet from Norm Myers, our guide on the 1998 trip.   Did run
into a slight problem - the Trout Creek had been damned since 1998 and we had to
find an alternate to lunch in Johnson city (see trail maps) |  
 Cocktail hour in Salida 
 Not mirror lake in Tin Cup  
 Jamie: "I don't think the trail goes around this
bush!" 
 At least there is barbed wire around this - hate to have to pull
the bike out of here! 
 Gnarly jeep trail into Johnson City 
 
  
    | The lead rider is supposed to kick the cow in the ass to get it
off the road.  Peter and Gordon jockey for the lead:) |  
 Steve finds gold!    
 Puddle crossing - and nobody could get it up! 
 And back to Salida in time for cocktails!     |
