Friday in SV Fisher Williams Creek

We got up early because we had to drive about 50 miles to get to Fisher-Williams Creek trailhead just south of Stanley Idaho. It was a crisp clear morning once again and the day promised to be another warm one. This trail is epic (about 30 km) and swickedly fast, what a blast, worth every minute spent in the truck getting to Sun Valley. If it looks like it went through the middle of a burned out forest, it did. This made for a very weird wonderful landscape. Checkout the video and then the slide show.

Every trail teaches you a different lesson if you listen carefully. Fisher Creek taught one of the Holy Wow Gang a very important lesson, one that all of us will have to take to heart as we get older. Fisher Creek lesson: When you take off your pack for a rest stop, don't be fooled into believing that the rest has made you feel lively and lighter when you get back on your bike, it just means you left your pack back at the rest stop and you get to tire yourself out going back to get it.
