Day One of Utah to Colorado

Tomorrow morning I begin riding again after almost 2 weeks off.

Mom and Dad and I drove out to Logan, UT over the last four days. We're each really eager to get out of the car and into the mountains. Mom will ride with me for a few miles tomorrow morning. We'll meet Dad at the base of Logan Canyon, and he and I will climb to the pass over the next 30mi. Mom bought herself a lightweight easel, and she's planning to do some water colors along the canyon. We'll descend to Bear Lake and and camp for the first night at a little state park called Rendezvous Beach. (Named after all of the Trapper's Rendezvous held in these mountains over a century ago. There trappers would sell pelts, drink, and swap tales of the harsh trappers' winters.)

It's supposed to rain most of tomorrow.
