MTB Mrazek

As the weekend rolled closer, it was time to start contemplating the riding options....Duane and I had been trying to synch up for a ride for a while and schedules just did not cooperate - until Saturday.  The plan was to meet at Shevlin and then head up Mrazek until we hit snow.  It was good to ride the trail early and have it to ourselves.  Mrazek is usually much less busy than Phils and people tend to forget about that trail until later in the year when it hooks into the middle ridge trail system (once the snow melts up high).

We got to the intersection up higher and decided to take our chances until the snow shut us down at around 5,200 ft.  For the first time, I took the little connector trail that parallels the main trail above the higher junction.  It was really fun!  Short, but FUN!
As always the descent went by too quickly and once we got lower we started to run into people.  It was a little surprising to see that many people on Mrazek this early in the season but I suppose we were not the only ones taking advantage of the recent good streak of weather.

The early start also meant I had a chance to salvage the rest of the day for errands and chores.
