May 14 - Whistler Lost Lake Singletrack "Zappa" themed trails



Rick has an opening in his quarter-share week in Whistler at The Montebello, so we are here in Whistler.  Rick has a sweet, 3 bed/3ba that we have stayed at multiple times for both skiing and mountain biking.  Francine picked up Kevin from work at the fire station, and at 8am they were on their way.  Traffic was super light thru Everett, the border, and even Vancouver.  I think leaving at that time meant that all the moms were still at home, putting the kids on the bus, and hadn't left the house yet.

80 degrees in Whistler.  Kevin had a long night at work, so after his 1 hour power nap, we headed out for a bike ride on the Lost Lake trails.  We've done these trail many times, and they are always a lot of fun.  Great "intermediate" trails, and easy to follow loop.  We pretty much did all the blue trails around the lake, with a detour to our standard lunch spot, the float plane dock on Green Lake.

There were plenty of people sunbathing at the Lost Lake park, and even swimming in the lake.  We stopped to check out Whistler Village and finally home.  10 miles.
