The Crazies Take Cooke's Peak

May 1:

The usual crazies assembled this morning for an all-day ride to the top of Cooke's Peak (Cookes Range).  It's the last hurrah before most of us leave for the summer.  

Early Start

l to r:  Gilbert, Steve, Mike, John

Does anyone know how to get there?
The route takes you through Massacre Canyon and Fort Cummings (subjects of earlier posts) and then a long run on a county road to the Cooke's Peak trail.  Start to finish, it was 65.5 miles by my odometer on the Honda.  The dogs were seriously pooped by the end of the day.


A little light refreshment at Cookestown.

Life at the Top







Back to Fort Cummings




I mentioned in an earlier post that I have a sizable bull snake living close to my front ramp.  See photo below.
