Pictures from FlatRock-WinterRock & Coleen's Frozen Fatass

Since the post about WinterRock & Coleen's Frozen Fatass was ridiculously long I thought I'd do a separate post for the pictures.  Sadly I don't have many from Coleen's.  It was dark, dark, dark by the time I made it there so I only got a couple.  At any rate the pictures mostly speak for themselves.  Enjoy.

FlatRock-WinterRock:
Shelter & Race Start

Through a divide in the rocks.

The top of the first hill.
You're climbing, climbing over the rocks through the trees and then you get rewarded with this beautiful view of the lake.  

Over the rocks through the blue blazes.  One hell of a trail.

Somebody built this little Christmas tree out of rocks.
It was sitting on top of a 4 foot high rock wall just waiting to cheer me up.

Can you find the trail?  Follow the blue blazes.

This is one of those pictures that does no justice to how steep this really was.
I literally stood there for a minute trying to figure out the best way down.

See the blue mark on the tree at the top?
Yep, the trail goes up through the crevice   Rock climbing and trail running all in one!  

A beautiful path through the giant rocks.

Evidently it's always 5 o'clock at FlatRock.


At the end/beginning of the trail there is this giant stone tunnel to go through which is what you see behind me.

Coleen's Frozen Fatass
The outdoor hydration & fuel station.  The house was also full of food and drink.


After two laps at Coleen's.  Nine miles for Kris, 13 for me.
