This turned out to be a surprising day. Late summer. Cam, Cole and I were looking for a fresh adventure and Cam drew up this zesty zinger. The route didn’t go as planned and we had to do some detouring on the western side of the range but there’s still some excellent rough and tumble graveling here, especially as you traverse the ridge on the northern and southern ends of the map.

Lots of pavement on this ride but where there’s dirt, it gets chunky. Shoot for higher volume and minimal tread. The ascent back up to Jarman’s is ambiguous. The road will disappear and you’ll second guess yourself. Just follow the map. You’ll get there.

All of your store stops will be on the western side of the map. There are loads of gas stations as you breeze through town.
