Shaw Mountain Road

I thought I would tackle the Robie Creek Route today.  I made it 7 miles up the mountain before I gave in to heat and just the fact that it was all up hill.  I think it was in the mid 80's inside the canyon.  It was fun and it was my first mountain bike ride of the year, but I'm going to have to keep building my legs as well as leave a little earlier in the day if I want to make it to Robie Creek.

There isn't much shade in the canyon and this was one of the few shady spots.

It's too bad I don't have a better zoom on my cell phone camera.  The side of the mountain is covered in sheep.  There are probably a couple hundred on this hillside.
