All shots taken on Sunday's ride up GMR/GRR to Cow Canyon Saddle. Was up at 5:00 AM or so and was keeping an eye on the temp up in the mountains. Wanted to ride early, but was afraid of ice on the road, seeing how it rained and snowed the day before. Was nice and warm when I took off at 11:45 but that didn't last for the entire ride. Ran into snow at the 3800 foot level , but not much. When I finally made the saddle, it was warm as long as I stayed in the sunshine. Ride back was cold, but I was dressed for it, and it was enjoyable. Ride ended up being 45 miles with over 4800 feet of climbing.
