    Excellent report and photos!!

    We camped up at Mineral King several years ago and talked the whole way up about what an amazing climb that would be on a bike. I'm with you, though, as hard as it is I would rather climb that road than descend it. Sketchy!!!

    Yes: epic! (And you weren't even on a mountain bike! )
