C+DE/6.2(6618)/43 Gravel Grinders #3: Butano Out & Back

Meet Shawnery Hardin (shawnery420@gmail.com) at Canyon Road next to Cloverdale Road, parking on left side of Canyon, at 8:45AM for an 9:00AM departure. Rain, not sprinkles, cancel and wet roads are a go. As long as it's not really raining I'll be there for the start. 

Up Butano fire road, down Chalk Road, up Chalk Road, down Butano fire road. The descents and climbs on these two roads are as different to each other as they are to themselves. Each climb and descent feels like it's own ride. This is not a technical route at all besides the slickness which may exist but that just increases the fun level!! It is mostly what one would consider fire roads more than actual trails.

Lunch/water: There will be zero water or food available unless you go a few miles north on 1 from Chalk. There is a gas station at the corner of Gazos Creek and 1. Lunch will be wherever the first person who needs it decides, on the side of the trail. Please ensure that you bring enough water and food to last you the entire day. I personally always bring my osprey 2L water pack, two bottles and is enough to last the entire day.
