Box Canyon Bust 10/8/2017

Loop – 280 miles

Bryon and I had plans to ride through Hill City cut back across the
mountains to Bliss then work our way to Box Canyon.

As we climbed Immigrant Road I decided to change the route  through the valley since the
mountains looked like they might have weather.

We had strong cross winds that would blow you off the road if you
stood on the pegs .

Google Earth showed a row to the canyon edge .
Cool ! I’m not going to hike to the bottom but should get some nice pictures
from the top.
However you have to park just off the pavement and hike a couple miles to the
canyon. The wind was still blowing 30+mph and I was in motocross boots .
It was big UGH UGH.


We decided to loop back to Hagerman for lunch.
