Figueroa Mt challenge
The complete 40 mile loop
There is nothing subtle about Firueroa Mountain. It is either all up or all down
Start on a cold, crisp, windy morning
7 Miles later, the base of the hill
One of the few flat spots
These 3 combined videos, taken on the way to the Ranger Station, sums up the day
Finally the Ranger Station, lunch and a long rest break
A long lunch break with a picnic table is great
I left a dozen bottles of water on the mountain, and none were disturbed
This is the false top. From here the road goes down almost a 1,000 feet, and then back up to the real top
About 1/2 way is 2nd lunch log. I may have to rename to lunch rock
Finely, finally, the real top
Some flowers along the way
Taken while brakes cooled on the way down
Almost the bottom, on the down side, 14 miles from car
Baseline takes me into the town, about 8 miles
A quick change of clothes
a great Brewery
And a well deserved IPA BEER, named Hoppy Poppy
1 mile to top
THE TOP
Large Movie: 1st section down to the Saddle
Letting the disk brakes cool, not a good place to lose brakes
Large Movie: Last part down to the Saddle
Large Movie: 1st section down Happy Valley
Water across Happy Valley
Large Movie: To the pothole of previous accidents
Large Movie: The gravel section I have never recorded before
