Five roads – P365 for January 17, 2010
A wide state road crosses rolling countryside in the pre-dawn darkness. I roll along at the speed limit, following a dim set of tail lights on the horizon ahead. I have a date with a sunrise.

The trail was in horrid shape; I don't know if it's from the recent bad weather or just hard use. I guess there's a reason they recommend you hike UP… Continue reading Inn at Ellis River
