Back on the Trail


After a few days of candy canes and roast beef and sugar plums and all that other Christmas stuff, I took a long, cleansing run up Longs Ranch Road, across to Barr Trail, and down to Manitou.
I was thrilled! I'd never been on this utilities service road before. It makes a great, although steep, loop that doesn't see much foot traffic, and because it is closed to motor vehicles, sees even less tire traffic.
I recommend it in the next few days as snow continues to melt.

By the way, for more news and pictures of local runs, as well as occasional anti-war ruminations, check out Steve Bremner's blog "talking sense". He took this picture on Longs Ranch Road during a run on Saturday.

What's up with the guy in the shorts? Brrr!

That picture is actually from last winter. For the two Incline Club runs up Longs Ranch from this year go to:
