Ride: Technical Sections Willow Lake/Peavine Trail Technical
Riders: 3 Steve Andy Brooke
Miles: 12.8
Since Micki is in Nebraska for 7 days, we thought we would invite Steve up for some riding here in Prescott and get out of that Phoenix heat. We met up a about 10:30 am and started off on the Willow Lake side and made our way over to the Peavine Trail. The Peavine Trail is an old rail road bed that the trains used to travel on while making their way through the Prescott area onto Ashfork and so on. It cuts right through the Granite Dells and along side of Watson Lake. So it's a mellow trail for the occasional rider but, riding off to the left of the Peavine, is a trail that winds it's way through the granite formations and is one hell of a workout. Twist and turns and dodging craggy rocks and boulder, downed logs and everything in between.
Above is looking back southwest from one of the high points along he trail. I wish I would've taken more pics but we were too busy riding and having fun. Steve and Brooke commented on how it reminded them of trails Gooseberry Mesa in Utah.
This is Brooke headed down one of the section on the first Willow Lake side. After the ride we went back to.......wait for it........Hugo's for some Mexican food. Of course Steve had the "Steve Special", I had the "Steve Special" and Brooke had the usual......3 beef tacos with cheese and beans with cheese.
Steve making it look easy...............again!!!!!
