The view from the fire pit.
View from the kitchen. The little green roofed hut is the sauna.
Apparently beer and 100° Celsius saunas are good pre-ride prep.
No, really.
The cabin is actually at 1400m so the nice thing is the day starts with a 30k descent towards Kamloops. This is us at the start of said descent: Basse, myself, Ryan, and we had a celebrity guest appearance from one of the finest climber's in BC's history - Carl Jacobson (6 time BC Hill Climb Champ). Basse's brother Rob also joined us and is behind the camera.
And they're off! The view doesn't really come through the pics but there are amazing sight lines for miles around from here over the Thompson Valley and it's surrounding peaks.
It is open rangeland and about half way down we came across a large herd on the road.
They are bigger so get the right-of-way.
Bass yelling obscenities at them and informing them of their future on a dinner plate which seemed to cause them to move on.
At the bottom you pop out in the open grasslands surrounding Kamloops. We climbed back up via Lac Le Jeune. Not many pics (we were cracking in the heat...) buy Ryan's Strava has all the deets.
The view from the dock after a hard day. Not shitty...
