Saturday, May 16th we went to the San Rafeal Swell to ride the Devils Race Track. We went with Clyde and his girly (Kiley), Russel and Em, Gee, and one of Russels pharmacy friends. It was awesome weather and we had a great ride. These are the bridges of I-70. They are crazy huge
and of course we had to climb them :)
There were some cool arches there. We didn't even see the one we were planning on, but got two other surprise ones. This one is teapot arch
This tree is growing out of what they call the "Ice Box." It's just a few cracks and caves where you can go get out of the heat of the summer. This tree was looking for the sun.
Another little arch just after we crossed back over I-70 on the other side of the Swell.

Mom and I were sad to give up an invite to such a great ride. Especially to give it up to do yard work.
ReplyDeletelooks like so much fun. lets do it in september with the family. thanks for sharing the picturesl love the swell
ReplyDelete52 MILES?! Glad I wasn't on that ride! You would have had to deliver my child probably. I have wanted to go camping at the San Rafael Swell for awhile... maybe next year? Maybe you should have your parents build a store there and we can camp inside or something! E-mail me your e-mail that you want me to send the blog invite to: Nicoll521@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteWow, looks like fun. It all looks so brown and dry and dead- but beautiful. Those arches are really cool. I bet your buts were mush after 52 miles. Glad you had fun. See you in a few weeks.
