I need directions for connecting the Hawes Pass Mine Loop with the Pass Mtn Loop. Can you help? My Payson ride is likely cancelled so I need a 30-40 mile local ride. I've ridden each seperately but never tied them together, might be able to fudge it tho.
* Keith C., Dan J., and myself are leaving Hawes around 8am if interested in joining.
I know, I know...it seems rather callous of me! The problem at the time was (here we go)..
It was late on the 'night before' and the ride location was not finalized with Keith or Dan. I leaned towards Hawes, hence getting directions. But we all decided to do the Whiskey route minutes before departing Sunday morn. Forgive me?
Sunday's Whiskey ride turned out to be 8 hours, well over 40 miles (both computers died in a mud bog), and a cross country navigational excercise that became a PITA. Several times we'd hit a section of the course and after awhile realize we were no longer on the course, then back track. This routine happened 5 or 7 times.
The Whiskey course has whicked-fun sections followed by gut-wrenching climbs. I felt every bit of the 15 lbs I gained in recent months.
WARNING: Do not rely solely on the Whiskey directions at Epic Rides website. Use a forest service map or GPS as your main tools.
