Grand Junction: Billings Canyon (4-30-06)

[IntrepidXJ]

OK, so today Wally took me up to Billings Canyon. It was a very tough trail once you got to the upper section. I had a great time. Only carnage was my busted JKS control arm (this is the 2nd one I've broken now) and added a little bent to my tie rod. Here's some pics.

How fun is that trail?! I loved it. I'm glad you got a chance to check it out....and I hope you're having just as much fun in Moab right now. I'd stay off Moab Rim if I were you. :p
