All smiles — even though the group just finished a 3 mile steady downhill section!
Maneuvering over an obstacle in the trail!
Anyone have a saw handy to clear the trail?

Pausing for another group photo
This IS wilderness — nary a building in sight!!
Note the steep canyon walls
Beautiful old tree
Autumn is here! — golden big leaf maple tree
Pure gold!!
Probably a historic watering hole for the horses running the Tevis Race
Lucky find by Dan —— but remember the motto — Take only photos, leave only footprints!
Heading down the VERY steep hill section — very slowly!!
Happy group — at WST Peachstone checkpoint — only 1/3 miles to cars!!
