Normal Human Biking

by

Terrified of single track riding! I’m a biking lightweight. Give me a flat, wide, not too steep stretch of pavement or dirt with low traffic….and I’m in! Harder to find than you think. For all of you humans out there that do not have your heart rate monitor synced to your Apple watch (not that there’s anything wrong with that), you will like this ride. You can even make a loop of it if you are feeling froggy. Here’s to perfect fall days for average bikers! Pass Bear Creek Golf Course and keep driving till the pavement ends on Bear Creek Rd, bike till you get tired, turn around. How is that for technical 🙂 Or you can just keep going till you get dropped out on East Chewuch Rd, about 2 miles outside of Winthrop.

Packin Into Cooney Lake- My Horse Adventure

by

Turns out being cool on horseback is not so easy. Early Winters Outfitters out of Mazama guided my party of 10 people (including 3 kids) to Cooney Lake, about 8 miles UP from Foggy Dew Trailhead (Gold Creek Carlton area). Amazing experience. I highly recommend you experience your own horse adventure one day soon in the Methow Valley.  I am proof that anyone can do it. Ha!

Water levels are peaking, no words needed (even if you could hear them.) Rushing down our hillsides in to creeks, into rivers, back to the ocean. A violent, muddy, visceral experience that happens every year. Way cool. Late May is a great time to get your white water rafting on. With a guide, if you value your life! You can check out Methow Rafting’s website for trip options. Or just sit on a rock, enjoy the soothing roar, and imagine yourself as a log in the current. That works too.

I love those big blue sky days, but mysterious moody works for me too! When I posted my “first snowfall” video mid November, I never thought it would stick around, but the snow is still fabulous and still here. Winter play may be on for another 2 months, so come and get it! Ice skate, sled, snow shoe, ice fish, nordic, and downhill skiing are rocking it hard.

Big snow fell the last two days in the Methow Valley, over a month sooner than last year. I am still not plowed out, an inconvenience that I sort of like. First snow always feels like a fantasy world. Big and little kids standing out in the haze, underdressed, with their tongues out, catching flakes.
