High Drive, bring the suppl oxygen

Ride today, meet at the trailhead @ 5:30 J

Sounds like the winner is to park at the lower High Drive parking lot, ride up High Drive, down Lower Captain, and the coast back down Gold Camp to the cars.

For anyone that’s interested in riding but is curious how tough the ride will be, there is not more than 50 yards of technical’ish riding on Lower Captain Jacks, but the trek up High Drive is a 2200 ft elevation gain in right at 4.5 miles, so it’s fairly steep.
