Aspen 2001:
This summer included a bike ride up to independence pass with Dave Morrison
(my training partner), and
Dan Kabat. It's about a 4000ft climb over 20 miles from Aspen to the pass
(at about 12000ft), and there
really aren't many if any down parts. We had a gorgeous day for the
ride - see for yourself,
Ofer Aharony, Andreas Karch, Albion Lawrence and
I hiked into Snowmass village.
Some pictures from the top of the Ute trail. Snow
already covers the distant peaks,
