I wasn't going to bother with pics from Day 4 as we didn't take many pics, and rode partly the same route as day 2. But since everyone is hiding out indoors today, here are a few to get you by:

We started back at IGA, but rather than riding blocks up the main road Sean found a back way to the start of Slim shady.


There was a technical climb to get us up towards the base of the rock formation


And a continuation of the fun rolling singletrack we did a couple days ago


Pano, looking east


This time, rather than taking HT trail we turned left and took Templeton around past Buddha beach. We rode along a ledge for quite some time, before a short tricky descent down to the water


Weapon of choice


We rode Baldwin trail part ways around the loop and then after a brief rest stop took the road back to IGA.


Not a lot of miles or time, but a good end to a great trip!

I went to Prescott on a business trip before I was a mountain biker. I drove over to Sedona in time to see the sunset --the light on the red rock gave the mountains an other-worldly glow. I'm not a New Ager by any means, but I can see why some people believe that place has mystical qualities.
