Vernal...Not sure what you know but it's a boom town! Natural gas and oil is all over. So too are the monster trucks and new buildings all over the place. Just over the past few years; the amount of restaurants and hotels being constructed is crazy. However, if one looks and searches; one will find solitude and some of the best single track.

Louise and I got a kid-free 3-day weekend, so we packed up the cruiser and headed East.

Found a nice camping spot and got the bikes ready.
