Afterthought Trail

This trail is a technical trail that has rocks to jump over and navigate through and has several switchbacks to power up. It would be easy to snake bite a tire if you do not have your timing right. A very rewarding trail to clean.

Song Review: Eilen Jewell - “Winnemucca” 

Pedal-steel and electric guitars wrap around the rhythm section - and each other - in the way Eilen Jewel wants to wrap herself around the unnamed addressee in “Winnemucca.” 

Jewell casts herself as an underpowered radio broadcaster needing a boost as she slyly sings:
