RR: San Juan Trail + Chiquito falls

[ThinkFast]

We had a great ride today. Jason aka rushak, Jake aka c('.'c) and Brian aka Hippydude on GeoLadders and I set out around 9:30.The route was up San Juan to Cocktail, New San Juan to Viejo Tie, Chiquito down to the falls, back up to San Juan and up to Blue Jay. The return trip was via New San Juan to Cocktail, then down to the trailhead.

Excellent riding weather and the trail was in good shape. The trail is getting a little loose and the rain that is in the forecast for this week should make it nice again once things clear out. Not too many pics since I was trying, without much success, to keep Jason and Jake within sight most of the day.

We must have just missed you guys. It's nice seeing water at the falls again.

It would have been good to see you. I agree it's nice to see water at the falls.

Viejo Tie and Chiquito down to the falls are my favorite part of that area. Viejo Tie is a bit technical in some spots and is challenging. Chiquito down to the falls is a nice flowing trail covered in leaves from the trees above. You will have to go down those trails next time you're there, especially after it rains, the falls will be flowing nice.
