Kenosha Pass > Georgia Pass > Little French > Boreas Pass > Como

This has been a route I have wanted to attempt for a little while now.  We started early and dropped a car in Como and headed back up to Kenosha Pass where we would ride the Colorado trail up over Georgia Pass and work our way across Mt. Guyote into Little French, up Sallie Barber over to Boreas Pass road and finish with the Gold Dust trail into Como.

It was a huge day 50 miles point-to-point with 5,500 of climbing taking us 9.5 hours through some remote and rugged old mining flumes, with a great mix of everything from smooth and fast to technical.  Great day and a great route.
