My Latest Adventure: Rampart Range

Here's a magnalog of my latest adventure at Rampart Range. Here's the same trip in Google Earth. Here's a magnalog and google earth kmz of Bar Trail (Trail 673) from Rampart Range Road to Sprucewood.

Over the course of the day, I rode 120 miles on my XR 400. But, off-road, I probably rode about 30 miles, I think. Bar Trail (Trail 673) is approximately 3.4 miles long. The top of the trail is at 8,080 ft above sea level. The bottom of the trail is at 7,080 ft above sea level. So, there's a thousand feet of evelvation change over 3.4 miles, on a single-track trail, which makes for a fairly interesting ride, IMHO.

The problem with these trails, is that they are all 2-way trails. This is very dangerous, as there are many blind curves where you never know if someone is coming the other way.
