Over the last few weeks I’ve ridden the loops in Rick’s Basin several times. I hadn’t been out there all summer until just recently but it’s been nice to get a quick and easy pedal in after work. Also, I needed to see the improvements made to the Rick’s Basin trail and to check out

Colorado’s Yeti Cycles recently paid a visit to the Tetons and had this to say about our awesome backyard: “A land largely unaffected by the progress of man, the Tetons Range and the surrounding areas are a pristine ecosystem inhabited by a vast diversity of wildlife spreading across multiple national parks. Uninhibited by foothills on

Last Saturday I took a ride after work with a crew from Habitat/Targhee. From the ‘ghee we pedaled up the Powder Reserve Traverse towards Lightning Ridge and kept going up Peaked Mountain. After hanging out for a while at the top of the descent we dropped into .38 Special which was just barely cut in

Over the last few weeks I haven’t been posting as many updates as I had been earlier this summer. That’s not to say I haven’t been riding though. Instead of trying to crank out more map segments I decided to get some rides in for fun. This past month I’ve ridden Southfork Horseshoe, the lower

I knocked out another two of the trails at Grand Targhee, leaving only two more to go for this area, both of which are still under construction. I took a couple of laps from the top of the Dreamcatcher lift coming down Sidewinder and then Sticks & Stones. Both of these are completely clear of

Earlier this week Jake and I spent the afternoon riding the trails at Grand Targhee. The trail crew up there has been extremely busy this season. First we took a couple laps on their new beginner trail called Greenhorn. Only being a few weeks old, it obviously still needs work but is well on it’s
Last night after work Will and I rode a few of the XC trails at Grand Targhee Resort. None of the 3 are very long in themselves, which would be great for a beginner or someone short on time, but combining the 3 makes for a decent ride. We actually rode all 3 and then

After a week of rain and over a foot of snow at higher elevations, I was finally able to get some riding in over the last couple of days. On Thursday Jake and I rode the North Fork of Mill Creek to the lower half of Mill Creek proper after work. This section of trail
