Good to see you!
Been riding up a storm!
Totally! Who knew.@Heidi man, you two picked a hell of a couple of years to drop out.
I think I see some Penitente, and maybe Frisco trail? I really gotta get down to the SSJ's. What else you guys doing up in the Canyon Crik area? I've heard rumors (@Full Trucker) that Horseshoe Creek is worth a bomb down as well...
I ain't scaredEnjoy the hike up at the top
We just finished two weeks in Del Norte area so yep, Penitente, Frisco, Silver Mtn, Pronghorn, Stone Quarry... In Pagosa for a couple weeks before that, Durango....goes on and on.
We'll hit all the usuals here. Horseshoe huh?
Before the COVIDS we spent 5 weeks in Big Bend State and National Park. So awesome there.
It's in the "middle" of the Canyon Crik loop. I've heard it's steep, loose, and chunky.
I wanna get out to ride Alpine Tunnels since it was under snow last summer.It's in the "middle" of the Canyon Crik loop. I've heard it's steep, loose, and chunky.
I've always been curious about Canyon Crik -> Quartz Creek... but it kinda goes the wrong way off that ridge - you'd have to get back via a lot of jeep road.
So much big riding up there...
A group of us just rode the Little browns creek loop on Saturday, that downhill is as good as you'll find.
Is the loop little browns and upper browns?
Mount Princeton Hot Springs - Little Brown's Creek Loop Mountain Bike Trail, Alpine, Colorado
A big loop on Mount Antero, from Mount Princeton Hot Springs, with an epic descent down Little Browns Creek Trail #1430 Near Alpine, Colorado.

We rode as a loop from the Cascade campground.
There's the beginnings of a ride report in the ride report forum.
@6thElement seems to have you sorted, but to pile on here I do have one group of friends that pushed their bikes up Upper Brown's to descend Little Brown's Creek... and they said it was hike-a-bike the entire way and not even likely to be fun as a descend due to awkward and plentiful rocks. And these are the types of people that enjoy awkward and plentiful rocks, mind you.
IMO Canyon Creek isn't worth the effort. I know, blasphemy but there are far better downhills. Now, the view is kickass for sure!!!! Pictures in link.

Yeah - I'd go so far as to say the partial-shuttle is mandatory... the full loop would be pretty brutal.
Jeezus - with the number of beetle-killed trees in those last few photos, I'm thinking they were taken in the San Juans?
No pics yet, but holy shit, just rode up Poncha Creek to Marshall Pass, hopped on the CO trail, down Silver and Rainbow. Silver is fun!!!!!!
All around Salida.
stellar. Silver Creek is teh goods.
