Silverado Foot Race

4/10/22  My fourth or fifth time doing the Silverado Foot Race and Dr. Rock's first. 6.5 miles and almost 3,000' of gain on some steep and occasionaly gnarly trail. Lots of fun!
The wildflowers are starting to come out in force.

A short section of trail here was pretty much gone. Dr. Rock loves this sort of terrain!
