No. You can see on the track where she turned back though. It looks like about another two miles to Gladden Farms. I’m sure I’ll bike out to it when I bike my age in miles though.
6 days agoDid Rachael make it to the new end near Gladden Farms? It's an 80 mile RT for me from my house. I have not seen the new part.

6 days agoGila Monster, Gila woodpecker, Gila Bend, Gila River.
