Adirondack State Park
Upstate New York

Some views of my surroundings on my way up.

As I sit in the gondola all padded up and ready for anything the mountain plans to throw at me, I notice there's a small difference in tread wear between my front and rear tires. Since I need to skid the rear tire from time to time then the difference makes sense. If the front tire skids I go over the handlebars. If the tire wear was switched I'd probably be in a body cast by now.
