After our brief visit at Rocky Bar we start the climb up Rd 156 towards Trinity Ridge Road. The road surface is starting to dry out and kick up some dust with the traction becoming a bit stingy.
We’ve been lucky … No rain yet
Break time … It’s been a long day covering a few miles to this point, so we felt it time to stretch the legs. As soon as we stopped the sleet started to fall. A few good sized trees within close proximity provided necessary shelter while we enjoyed the view.
One of the lakes as we take the rocky road that passes over Trinity … the road over Trinity is seasonal only to open at the beginning of July through the end of Fall when Winter finally decides to retake its hold.
After we cross the pass we start our decent down Trinity Mountain Road towards Fall Creek… The Fall season has a strong grip at this elevation painting the hillsides in a wide spread of Red.
We descend …
Final glance back …
The road is rocky and loose until we make the intersection of Rd 159, Burnt Creek … a literal definition
