Fantastic little late evening cruise around the lower/mid/upper BST/ Mt Ogden trails.  Did a little exploring down Strong's and south of the golf course...crazy as many miles as I put in up there I've never run those lower trails.

Picked it up coming back on the BST and felt great unitl I caught my toe square on a rock and took a nice full frontal digger.  It is in that moment, when flying hands and feet sprawled, face first at the trail, that curse words rarely uttered are extruded from the darkest corners of my mind. 

1:20, 1100 vert or I'd guess.
