SPRUCE MOUNTAIN OPEN SPACE

 We had so much fun riding this trail on Wednesday that we had to come back and show it off to the other boys!
 This is such a great ride for the boys.  It's mostly single track, a little sandy and some fun little stumps and rocks to roll over which makes it a great little training trail for them.  
 My boys have always been very cautious.  Canyon is patient and doesn't take any risks but he's a quick learner and once he feels "safe" he is confident and does really well.
 Sawyer is our easily frustrated kid so he gets in his own way often, but once he gets through it he powers through and has fun.  
 August and I have so much fun and he's our bravest of the three.  
 The scenery out here is vast and beautiful.
 The wildflowers are everywhere still which makes it even more stunning.
 Parts of the trail push through some thick vegetation that we call the "forest" and the boys loved navigating through it.
 We do a little 4 mile loop and this is just an extra part of the trail we like to climb up to before we head back.
A perfect September day.
 Love them.
After our ride we stopped in Palmer Lake and had some ice cream at our favorite place!  Can't wait to keep coming back and watching them get more and more comfortable on the trail.  Proud of these little men.
