So, yesterday was my annual car emissions/Deer Creek trip, (poor planning, two tags that renew in April, with emissions requirement staggered), and it felt like it was quite a bit gnarlier than last April.
The rocky sections before you even get into the trees seemed much worse, certainly doable, but a lot more tech than I recall. Forget about the wall, I haven’t even attempted that in at least 5 years, but approaching the waterpoles, (much too large to be just waterbars), there are 12inch+ drops and crazy rocky.
And yes, I am older and slower, that may be a large part of my perception, but that was a lot of work to get up to the top.
