where the trails are
TWE is on my bucket list and thinking hard about paying a visit next fall. Is there already snow there? A co-worker went a few weeks ago and said it was hovering right round freezing at the top.
There was some snow up at the top last two weeks ago. Burro down was slick but so so so good. Word is shuttles are still going up to the top. It's a really amazing ride.

I just found next year's Rocky Mtn monkeyfest!
Moab :monkey:fest would be amazing.

Annoyed to have not had a TWE run this year, still right up there as one of my favourite rides.

Pro-tip: ride TWE in mid-summer (start REALLY effin' early to beat most of the heat down low) and combine it with a high-country trip to the San Juans (they are quiet close to Moab). You will be treated to ZERO crowds in Moab... which is rare. And San Juan singletrack = heaven.

Currently at my parents house waiting for them to get back from their daily hour long walk. I saw some interesting political signs in north Idaho. They are really scared of muslims and gays this election.
