Black Rock Campground to Silver City Photos

The muddy morning climb. I had a lot of pushing to do, the Kiwis had to carry their bikes!

A great variety of morning terrain. Very hilly!





Several climbs in, a look into the valley that I eventually crossed off into the distance.



Yet another continental divide crossing!

40 miles or so of the day were paved, but that didn't make the riding much easier. Less muddy though.



Lake Roberts.



The very steep climb out of that valley offered amazing views.







Many miles and hours later, the Town of Pinos Altos. Perhaps most famous for the repeated raids against it by Geronimo.



The descent into Silver City

Silver City!







Since it was a rest day, I was able to stay up late and go to Karaoke with my host. It was a good time - although most of the songs I thought to sing they didn't have. Picking Karaoke songs is a talent I have not developed yet.

And first photo last as usual, this was taken on my climb out of Black Rock Canyon.  You can see the road I descended the day before (in the rain) snaking up the other side.
