Trans-America Trail Trip Planning

by Carla King in Uncategorized1 Comments

Sam Corerro of the Trans-America Trail called the other night to talk about my August ride through Colorado. We talked about what the weather might be like. “Bring layers,” he said. “There will probably be snow on the high peaks – but not for long, and then we’ll drop down into a 105 degree desert valley.” Then he started talking about wild horses and bear encounters. He met a mama bear on the trail one day. “What did you do?” I asked. “She wouldn’t move, so I had no choice but to go around,” he replied. So he gunned it, and whipped around her real fast. Now… who needs to leave the country for adventure?
