Hmmm, 1 Mt Everest…does that mean McCool would say it’s ‘mostly flat’?

Subject: [BBTC Ride_calendar] Hogle Zoo to Chalk Creek Saturday 12 May 07

There will be a small contingent (maybe just one :-) starting in SLC for Tom’s Chalk Creek ride this Saturday.  I rode to Hennefer yesterday, and have done my best to calculate a start time of 6:15am that will rendezvous with the Mtn Green group at the junction east of East Canyon reservoir at 9:00am, or failing that, Hennefer at 9:30.  We’ll continue with the main group to Coalville and the Wyoming border.  I’ll be returning to Hogle, but you could start in either place and return either place if you can arrange the transportation.

We will meet at the parking lot just east of Hogle Zoo at 6:00am.  We need to finish signup and be on our way at 6:15am.  This will enable a B pace to enjoy small breaks at the summit of Little Mtn, Big Mtn, and the resort grocery store (not sure when it opens in the morning).  This ride will be more climbing than the Mtn Green route, and still 130 miles, so we’ll climb at a moderate pace.

130 miles / A-B pace / 1 Mt Everest / c Salt Lake City area
