Two Elk 2009

The ride to Bowman’s Shortcut was uneventful, though a little cold.
Bowman’s mocked us again. That damn goat!
I can take this picture a hundred times (and I probably have) and yet it still presents the reality of the beauty around me.
Andrea was ripping up the trail.
And the boys were up to their jokes.
As long as the blue hangs around it will be fine,
Andrea had a need for speed.
Keith can play on the routy rocks as well.
Rachel and Alisha making a pass.
Winding down the back bowl singletrack.
It’s time for the testosterone fueled "I can do that" event. Jason decided he would jump off the 8′ ledge just above the lifts.
It was beautiful.
Until he landed.
How come I don’t have a picture of him curled up in a ball? I think I went into shock when I heard the hit and couldn’t press the button.
The rain started coming down hard. It made the bottom portion by the creek an interesting ride. I hate the exposure to begin with. Add in rocks that are as slippery as a water slide and it was a "special" experience.
Joe rocked the fully rigid SS the entire way.
