I am back and I am glad. I came out at night and that is one thing you should never do. The adventure (up Rattlesnake Corridor and ran mosquito, looped around back to bike then out) went fine until I got off the bike. I went up the wrong trail. The maps above show my loop instead of the up and back planned. Actually it was 1 mile longer the way I went. I ran the entire thing and finished in 7:50 for the entire adventure.
I got a flat tire coming out and it was so dark I couldn't tell where I was oriented on the bike. Once I had actually almost come to a stop and fell over. I got the flat fixed in pitch dark and barely made it out. I went crazy in the dark
