Got a good ride to the wall in Friday am, then a little rain/wind after 2pm Friday but not bad. Saturday was sunny and clear excellent - had a 6.5 hour ride into all the new opened area - over 65 miles RT. We went 1/2 way down to Patton valley, about 9 miles south of china wall. Had lunch. Chilled. Found some cool hills including a steep soft hill with a giant 30' deep witches eye you drop into to go up the hill. Everyone Brought extra fuel and needed it.
