Mmmmm..... rock piles

Went and rode lifts today at deer valley. One of the trails there is the course for a professional downhill event. We rode the trail except for 3 places where the trail for mere mortals takes an easier route around the race track. The rest of the trail was ridable and fun with a few terrifying moments. (I made no attempt at the following depicted sections of so-called trail)

15 foot cliff you ride down or jump over...

8ish foot mandatory air (jump from where the guy is standing)...

and a gully full of rocks and logs.

And thank god for body armor, tumbling down rock piles has way fewer consequences. Especially when you are kind of wuss and don't like things that hurt.
