    Until there's enough snow on the ground to ski without making rock boards I'd like to get as much riding in as possible. For us in Bozeman that generally means Pipestone. To ensure enough time to ride, let's plan to be on the bikes at 10am, meanin...

    I've ridden Sheepshead. It was great. It felt like wilderness. Warm springs ridge is my favorite in the area.

    according to the map of proposed Wilderness, it will be on either side of the main trail. Somehow, I'm sure the FS will cut it off to bikes anyway.

    Sheephead and Blue Joint are about 45 minutes from Hamilton, so about 1.5 hours from Missoula. The main places to ski up the West Fork are Trapper Pk and Boulder Mtn which are a few trailheads farther east. Blodgett Canyon is just outside Hamilton...

    PS: I understand that it's probably too we to ride right now.

    How long a drive are these places you've mention here and in your previous post from Missoula? Everything on that east side is headed for Wilderness if that law passes, right?

    Sheephead Trail

    Nestled on the east side of Nez Perce Pass at the end of the West Fork of the Bitterroot offers a chance to experience the remote backcountry of the surrounding Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness which borders the area on three sides. When combined with trails #12 and #16, an epic day of solitude awaits, and encounter with a wolf is more likely than a person.

    Bear Creek Overlook

    Riding last night revealed the cyclical rhythms of the world. Memories of numb feet and snow from the early spring found their way out of the hippocampus and back to into consciousness.

    Once again I'm disappointed with the turnout of the Los Chupacadenas del Noches once the weather turns a little cold and the night comes early. I can understand the reticence for those who stumbled around in the dark two week ago on Railroad Creek. For everybody else I can just imagine the lame excuses. My wife… Continue
