Elk Mountain

Grants Pass, Oregon

10 miles with 2100 Feet of elevation gain

My brother-in-law, Rick Bernheisel, and I rode this one hot morning at the end of July.  It was fun to get out and ride, but the dirt and gravel roads leave you desiring something a heck of a lot more fun.  It was steep, loose and not all that fun to have to pedal up.  Especially if your legs aren't used to climbing almost a half mile of verticle.
