Went to Baker and had a good time, at least I wasn't working....
Here is a misleading photo. Yes my whole face is sunburnt, but I don't remember seeing any sun.
The unloading point, beginning of the ride.
If you got big tires and a lift, punch through the snow as it is only 100 yards or so and then gravel for a while, like 1/2 mile or so. Never ridden on gravel whoops before, but at least it was a new experience. We parked after all of the switchbacks.
The bridge
The snow bridge
The view
Downhill, sitting on the seat, carving. Yours truly
Mountain Beaver.... started a whole bunch of jokes about beavers of all kinds.
So what else is there to do when you are fogged in? Build jumps, that is what. So in true fashion Yammadog and I built a jump to entertain ourselves for a while.
We went up to Hood hill to do some more jumping and playing in the snow. The snow conditions were good, easy to carve in and play around. Got to hood hill and sat for a while, then figured should call it a day since we couldn't see anything.
There you go.
Lesson for the day
Just because the weather says mostly cloudy becoming mostly sunny, doesn't mean it is going to be mostly sunny, just that it is going to be mostly sunny!
