I took Trapper's Loop yesterday and this morning, it's on the other side of the Wasatch Mountains, about twenty minutes from my doorstep. Yesterday was gorgeous, sunny, leaves were at their peak but I didn't bring my camera.
Today I remembered the camera, so it was cold, windy, and threatening rain. Thought I'd share the photos anyway:
This is near the entrance to Snowbasin ski area, where the 2002 Olympic downhills were held.
The red leaves are scrub oak, the yellow aspens. The white trees are dead (grin!)
Me an' my baby. I need to figure out how to carry a camera tripod on the bike, my helmet made a pretty poor substitute...
This little convenience store is a gathering place for bikers in the summer and skiers in the winter, and a great place for an after-ride iced tea (or hot coffee, as was required this morning!)
I beat a path home as the sky kept getting darker, and I don't (yet) have rain gear. The first drops of rain hit my helmet as I was pulling into my driveway, and then it downloaded bigtime. A great morning despite the weather!
