Imogene
Pass

I
wish I had a lot to say about Imogene Pass this year. The agave flowed
the night before and I had a little brain damage going on at the beginning
of the ride. Ryan and I stuck with Jason and Matt as the Brutus was
having some vaporlock issues before we caught up with the rest of the
group at the top of the pass. The sky was dark most the afternoon and
we saw a lot of rain and hail and snow coming down through Tom Boy Mine.
The road was washed out in 3 places. There was excitement on the radio
further down the trail. We studied our options of staying on the mountain
after dark in a storm or finding a hard spot in the mud slides and drive
through. Good engineering minds at work determined it was safe to roll
through and get off the mountain. In short, I feel we almost died up
there. =8-)
