by Thanks everyone this trip is in the books now. Fishing did not happen this time, but I did have the chance to fish at Carbon Canyon Park and my next trip I will do some fishing on the way.
The trip was good for a first one. I rode a full 17 miles and by the time I reached four corners I was sucking wind. But I made it and from that point it was all down hill. The campsite is nice and served me well. I used The One Trekker Pole tent by Gossamer Gear. It did great very small but I was very comfortable in it. No Mountain Lions but I have seen them before, no Bobcats but I have seen them as well. The Coyotes were singing all night. We did hear that it was Snake and Tarantula mating season
Of course there were lots of tarantulas on the trail but no snakes were located either. The ride home started at 9am. It was the telegraph trail I would ride and of course hike a bike on the large hills. The last one was a freaking wall. When I reached the top with my bike and the 40 lbs of extra gear I felt accomplished. From that point it was all down hill and back to my house. So the whole trip was a total of 34 miles. I can say in all honesty this kicked my butt, but I completed the whole ride. I can also say I loved it and will be doing more trips soon.
