Carbondale - McClure Pass - Erickson Spings

Wednesday - Carbondale - McClure Pass - Panonia Reservoir - Erickson Spings campground on Anthricite creek.

Let the climbing begin! And so it was. Breathtaking views, as if I had much breath with all the climbing. But of course there is always the other side, and a nice fast downhill.

The route was highway 133 from Carbondale to the Panonia Reservoir. After stopping for a break at the Panonia Reservoir we turned off the highway and headed up to the Erickson Springs campground on the Anthricite river.
