Winston and I took off from camp for Poison Spider trail, which is crawling with mountain bikers in the summer. We saw one hiker about a mile from the trailhead and then no one for 9 miles. We came back down to the highway via Portal Overlook, which as I told Mikey when I met him at our finish, was beautiful and terrifying. Before a steep descent, it runs along the cliff edge overlooking the Colorado River and town. To avoid vertigo, I looked straight ahead and even walked the more technical sections. (I should have taken photos of the signs warning cyclists to dismount, but I was concentrating so hard on the two of us not falling off the trail, photography was not at all on my priority list.)
