Here's a glimpse at what mountain biking the Carbon River Road looked like yesterday.
Peter Haley shot this artsy picture of me riding past a huge root wad from a tree taken out by the flood.
See the trail I'm on, that's all that's left of the road after the flood. The road won't be rebuilt until next summer, so grab your bike.
