    Weeklong trip to Rossland, British Columbia

    08-20-2012 12:55 PM #1
    Just a few shots from my trip last week. I will have a video up later but here are some of the highlights. I got to hit a ton of the local trails, rode everyday, got lost, ran into bear, it was awesome.

    73 miles, 14k of climbing

    Oh mans. I missed this thread!

    Did you do the 7 summits? Rossland is on my list. I want to stop there on my way to Silverstar next summer.
    Great pictures!

    Neat!
    I am plotting/scheming an early October trip out that way, though not quite so far as to Rossland.

    Did you use Snapseed to pretty up those pictures?
