White Guilt vs White Privilege | Lime Creek 5/4/2013

When overwhelmed with white guilt about your white privilege the only thing you can do  is go clear trail .

Riders – David , Brian , John

Loop ~ 45 miles

We rode from the corrals => Sheep Drive => President=> Hunter Creek => back to the corrals

Down fall cleared ~ 15-20

First ride with a chainsaw in 5-6 years. I did ok but generally had to ride a gear lower.
Great day, needed a jacket on the roads but rode with just a jersey on the trail. Had snow flurries and sprinkles  but the heavy stuff missed us.

Sheep Drive had already been ridden , but we were the first to clear the trial. A couple of spots we had to pick our way around snow drifts.

Clearing after the woody section on Sheep Drive, didn’t have that many down trees.

Brian waiting for a scouting report from David. This first drift was easy to ride over.
The next one we had to double team the bikes to get through and kept our fingers crossed that we didn’t have to back track.

Cutting downfall on President.
South Fork of Lime Creek was running low, made for an easy crossing.
