Rode up Ebbotts pass and let me tell ya, it was great from the word go and only got better and better and better. Just when I thought I couldn’t say OMG anymore, I’d turn the next bend. What a fantastic motorcycle road!
Long sweepers warm you up then switch to a one lane roller coaster with tight S curves.
Awesome curves...go fast curves that go up, up ,up then down, down, down to Hwy 395.
I wanna do it again!!! Moto peeps, put this on your list of absolute must rides.
I was planning on stopping at the lower end of Ebbotts to make camp but was having so much fun on my bike that I kept riding. By the time the fun stopped I was all the way down by Yosemite. LOL.
AND THEN...(yes it's still good) I stopped at a forest service office to ask about a campground. Let me preface by saying I paid $35 last night for a piece of dirt, a dirty bathroom and a tin mirror. I woke up this morning determined to find a place to camp that wasn’t a campground. And boy did I, anyway the ranger told me of some “dispersed” camps along Virginia Creek just off Hwy 395.
I am camped in the most perfect spot, a little creek is gurgling by my tent. There are other people here, but they are not close, I have my own little piece of paradise. Thank God.
This is what I’ve been missing!!
I’ve almost eaten all my food that I bought 12 days ago...I thought I might never get rid of it. That teaches me to go overboard...no more hoarding of the food. Now I can start over and gather as I get hungry.
Did I mention how much fun that ride was today? Not too mention the scenery, it was fantastic. Go to Ebbotts pass. Camp, stay at the lodge, ride, hike, you name it...it’s a goodie.
