Today (12/17) I had a great ride at Auburn with Cohenfive, 8Trak, Pffft and for part of the way Elsietee. The weather was a bit cool and humid, and it rained a bit on us toward the end of the ride. Cohenfive, 8Trak and myself went up Clemetine and then down Shortcut II Trail, a very nice narrow singletrack, and we met Pfft and Elsietee across Old Foresthill Road. We then took the Mammoth Bar OHV trails, which involved a lot of climbing, out to Foresthill Divide. We went counterclockwise around Foresthill Divide, then the Connector to the Culvert Trail and back via the Confluence. The conditions were terrible for picture taking, below are most of what I got. Sorry I missed Elsietee, but I didn't know she wasn't going to be around for very long. Here is a link to a map, the Mammoth Bar OHV trail is #21 on the map.
