I spent another night back up @ same XG which is on the continental divide. Sleeping @ 6300′
I drove back down to Helena for another ride, the one Eric laid out. I missed the left hand road of his route so I just rode up to Helena ridge trail and down Show me the Horse. These South Helena trails are so great as creative loops can be put together right from historic downtown. Another 60 min climb w/ a 20 min descent. All by myself. Another good ride.
I hung the solar shower outside that was solar heated for an outside shower.I was parked X the street from a MT State office building on city street. I chose the dirt road and Davis Gulch TH from yesterday. Yesterday after my shower there I hung my tub mat over the fence and drove away w/o it. Today b4 my ride I returned to the TH and it was still there. Bath mats have no demand.
Hot and smokey.
Grocery shopped and heading south to Muskrat creek outside Boulder. No internet access. Quick note then my dash.
Spokane knee appointment on Mon 9/10.
Hey Craig, if you need a quiet place to park, let me know. You are always welcome. We will be gone from August 31 through Sept 4. If you want to park at the property anyway, feel free. There is an electrical hookup post by our travel trailer. Feel free to use it. Unplug the trailer, it’s only plugged in to keep the battery charged. Don’t use anything that will pull a big electrical load, like an air conditioner, as it will flip the electrical breaker on the well and you’ll be without water. Water available at any of the spigots, it’s all potable. Brent may or may not be there. If you decide you want to stay while we are gone, let us know and I’ll leave a door open for you.
