Christmas @ The Cliffs

Monday, December 26, 2005

I just got back a little while ago from a little run I threw together at The Cliffs. Since fatwreck was going to be in town for the holidays, I decided I’d take him out wheeling here in Illinois since he took me out when I was in Colorado. …and who better to lead us, than BurnedBronco.

Of course there has been snow on the ground, and the last few days have been above freezing with rain, so the park was very wet and traction was hard to be found. Even with the slippery conditions, we managed to cover quite a bit of the park and even hit some of the hardest trails…there was plenty of winching, though!

Here are some pictures from the day:
