In a van.... down by the river
Did The Loop again today. Actually saw one other human in the parking lot at the start and one more human near the lot when we returned.

Also saw a MONSTER bull elk about halfway down the singletrack. Also saw numerous deer, and of course the rabbits. Everywhere were the rabbits.

Was a little chilly right at the beginning, but the climb took care of that quickly - left the windbreaker on for the whole ride, though.

Grass/flowers are knee deep in places, and because the singletrack is ~10 inches, I got lots of close encounters with the grassy kind....... :D If I'd been able to close my eyes I could've imagined myself in Crested Butte in high summer.

8 miles of goodness and I was at my desk showered by 7:15.

The monster relleno and spiiiiiiiicy green chili at Brewery Bar II might have something to do with the mid-afternoon sloth, I suppose.
