Crater Lake is probably the most beautiful ride I have ever done. It's challenging, 3600 feet of elevation gain in 33 miles. It is never flat! But is jaw droppingly gorgeous! As a bonus, 18 miles of it was still closed to motorized traffic.



The Phantom Ship.



Descending at 37 MPH ( we zoomed in on the GPS) on the closed section of road. Thom is riding beside me taking photos.

My neck and throat were still really sore from my tumble. That chin strap will do a number on your throat when rocks are trying to rip your helmet off your head!
