Ride Report: Sumas Mtn


I went up Sumas Mt again. Last time I went on my bike, I got into some big trouble on some single tracks and I couldn't turn around so I had to muscle my beast down some suicidal trails that were pretty much straight down the side. It took every ounce of energy I had to get off the mountain. Lesson learned. This time I was trying to get to the radio tower on the top and I found it. Great view: farmland and the bay on the west, Mt Baker on the east, and Canadian mountains to the north.








They are building a new tower next to the old one. I was tempted to climb the thing. (on the ladder)













Lets try out the self timer:










Some single track: but careful not to get in over my head.









Active logging.




















And look what I ran into... I don't see many other Tigers, and they only had this color for one model year.
