This trip took place over two different times once on 8.7.21 and a return trip on 9.26.21 to mountain bike the a small portion of the Colorado Divide Trail on the Alpine Tunnel loop (18 miles) outside of St Elmo, Colorado. The trip on 8.7.21 took place during wildfire season and the sky was filled with smoke making mountain biking a little more difficult since I had a hard time breathing with the smoke (I don't regret going at all even with the smoke ?). The 2nd trip took place towards the end of September on 9.26.21 when the sky was much clear and the leaves had started changing colors and include a side trip down to west portal of the Alpine Tunnel which I skipped on the first trip due to the smoke. I had the trip to myself for the most part both times minus a hiker or two towards the end.
