Supermoon ride Saturday – Totally clear skies but some haze perhaps from inversion. I decided well on doing the Chatfield ride on the Saturday before Full Moon.
But I had the wrong times written for moonrise. So I missed the moonrise come up from the distant east horizon. Chatfield trail by Plum Creek confluence is now blocked perhaps for good. This is first phase in raising the reservoir level. There’s going to be a lot of changes it will look like construction at several locations, new roads, relocating facilities.
Supermoon ride Sunday – Ride to Shangri-La and then the shortcut to the cemetary. Excellent views overall with lots of sky. Followed the ridgeline and found a good easterly facing knoll by the Issac Newton school ballfields. The moon illuminated the night so that moonshadows were easily seen.
