Best trip I've done.
Day 1 jewel bridge to bear paw camp via deer pass (rides great "backwards").
Day 2 up elbow pass, across to Lorna pass, down Lorna, up and back down little paradise, down tyaughton creek (awesome), up and over WD to spruce.
Day 3 windy pass, eldorado ridge, lick, back up gun creek rd to truck.
The backcountry camps make big loops easy.

Hey guys, leaving for a 3 day trip on Friday. Any suggestions where to drop a truck (do we need to?) after descending the B[HTML_REMOVED]F Creek trail? Any one know the status of the trail? We are flying out of Tyax to Warner and plan to ride to Spruce and make our way up High Trail to Windy Pass and make our way down back to Tyaughton via the B[HTML_REMOVED]F. Is there a good place to drop a truck on the way to Tyaughton so that we're not humping it up the service road after a long ride? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Shed head!

lick is a much better ride than B[HTML_REMOVED]F, and takes you back to tyax pretty nicely

I did Lick last year and I've read that B[HTML_REMOVED]F is pretty good too. Lick was alot of fun. Have you done Windy Pass?

getting up to Windy is an awesome and major hike a bike. look for mtn goats from the top, a small herd spends time in the area.

Yes we cleared some stuff off of Brett Creek as well, the full shulaps loops are open as well. We did a 130km loop from marshal to lac la mare, burkholder lake up and across to big dog, noaxe lake, and big sheep mtn too, all open…lone valley is sweet too…we were on trials as well as Rat…vid below

Jim/Brett creek was super sweet last weekend! Nice how the storm passed when we hit the alpine and we were welcomed to blue skies and stunning views. Thanks to all those who helped clear it!! Really appreciated it :) made for an awesome flowy ride down Brett this time.

I have no filter …

taking my girlfriend back to the chilcotins this week for some more riding. Last time we went we rode the very end of lick creek, spruce lake out and back, and cinnabar from the road.

Hopefully looking to push into the alpine from taylor this trip. Whats the shortest ride we can get away with. Taylor,Camel,Lick? I've done taylor eldorado lick and feel like that would be too much right now (especially after pickling our livers for the past week)

any other good rides we can do that dont involve alpine out there?

Thanks!

Just a speculative fiction. No cause for alarm.

Taylor/Camel/Lick was pretty much as good as it gets yesterday, Lick was tacky and sublime!
