The first was in the Stillwater recreation area west of Lake Granby and Grand Lake. I had been eyeballing this loop ever since I moved to CO. Some close family friends have a cabin nearby so I've ridden parts of this before. I had always been thwarted on the complete loop, though. Whether it was navigational errors or weather, I could never seem to put the entire loop together. I did exactly that on Sunday afternoon. Here's some pics of the Supply Route/Wolverine loop.
I was happy that the ride ended literally at my campsite. Beers were waiting and I was exhausted.
Monday was a different mission. Little did I know that it would involve lots of bushwacking and route finding. 8 hours on the bike and it was all good. I started near Arapahoe Bay on Lake Granby and made it about 1/2way out on High Lonesome. I wanted to ride all the way to the end of High Lonesome but I didn't have it in me. It would've added about 1000' of climbing. Here's pics of the route finding extravaganza. Still a successful mission despite the hangups, though.

Damn man, i need to get on the bike with you. Monday's are bad for me...bummer.
Note the hummingbird in the 1st pic of day 2. I didn't even notice it at first, but I really was trying to take a pic. Quick little bugger.
