so...it was time again for a run on this world class singletrack. the track was mostly in fantastic shape, the cox hill descent is a bit loose and eroded. was a nice hot day for a high-alpine ride. this one should be pretty familiar to most calgary folk.

it starts innocently enough

but soon degrades into a nice steep push

the ridge is a fun climb

c'mon hizz...stay on the bike

almost to the top of jumpingpound

and the ubiquitous summit bike porn

as sweet as any ride out there

no pics of the technical descent from jumpingpound...but still gotta climb cox

and climb....

again....no pics of the descent. cox hill is a brake burning delight. if we're luck, hizz got some pics....

Looks like a great ride. We were over in Panorama, weather was great 35 C at the top looks about the same for you.

This should be in in "Passion" ! Great pictures . Every time we go down there to ride we get rained out .

I heard that is one tough climb getting up ! Hopefully this year .

Wicked pics! The first time I rode jumping pound I went up the backwards way on SS, as a kind rider at the top let me know. Good to see the 'up' perspective from the proper ascent.

BIG STOKE SHOTS!

Maybe these trails will be rideable by July.
here comes another fricken snowstorm. When's this Global Warming thing gonna kick in?
Every year the season gets shorter and shorter.

I hope they are rideable September 19th. After last years Bow80 I swore I'd never do it again... so of course I registered for this years bloodbath.
