Buffalo Creek Adventure, Labor Day 2012



This wonderful drop has a name, but I keep forgetting to get it down. Between Lakeview and Denio

Compare to post of 4/2/11 ("Stunning Landscapes from The Drive West that Were Soooo Good, I Forgot To Post Them. I just wanted to hold them".). Different car, different bikes.

Very smokey in Lakeview basin and also much of Nevada.

Buffalo Creek, Meadows Group Campground. I think #13 is Zeta. Shouldn't she be # 26 in our alphabet?


Keilea at right. Gal at left was to rescue my camera two days later.

Morning 1, ride 1. I'll be damned if the beeyotch didn't wear the same shirt as I! Gil and me.

Before descent of first ride, off Colorado Trail, above the switchbacks to North Fork of South Platte (I think). Dan, Kurtis, Chuck and Gil. The fellow above Kurtis is a really great guy, but I forgot his name.

I don't think he's Blake.... Gil looks better, here.

Lazy time

Gil, those shorts DO make you look fat.  ;-)


Keilea was running a jumping clinic.

Koolio at back in plaid shirt and white cap.

Easier to see him here.

Koolio and Mommio.

Mornings were nice because the hellions were subdued.


Gabi, Chuck (Two-Buck Chuck) and Gil (Dolla-Bill Gil0.

Dave, Josh, and the great kid whose name I've forgotten. Sorry. He's great.


Right. Just stay on their good side

Ian, Caroline (Chuck and Gabi's miracle), Kurtis and two I dunnos.

Caroline and Zeta (?)

I just like this shot.

Chuck and Hans.

Jim, Cora (who photographs VERY well), Christy and Sue. Sue is discussing the children.

An improvement.

Both of them working at same time.

Rob had excellent fruits and veggies.

Oh, just cuteness....

See? Am I right? That's Martina's back. We found the girl in the food lockers.

Not a still life.


Tom and Rob

Keilea and Cora (See? It loves her).

Like this one, too....

She's very nice but I can't remember her name, either.

I do know that's Gil's ear. The girls are braiding, not de-lousing.

Gabi, Gil....

Tokyo Joe's team rider Kurtis Barth.

Sue and gal who found my camera on the trail and I am repaying he with donuts (which Gil has been asked to provide) and also by forgetting her name.

Dog Poop Rock. The kids named it years ago.

Along--or above--the Platte
