11 miles of hiking • 3750' elevation gain •
Did a bike 'n hike to Tanner Butte. Traveled the 777 Rd by bike (channeled my inner Lance Armstrong for this part) to the Tanner Creek Trailhead. Along the Tanner Creek trail , I stopped to admire the trail work done by PHer Sean Thomas. Near the Moffett Creek Trail junction I went up an anonymous ridge to intersect the Tanner Butte Trail then on up to Tanner Butte. Returned on the Tanner Cutoff trail to recover the bike, then back up/down the 777 rd to the parking lot. At the summit ran into Nat and E.
Winter is done, finished, finis, there is only patchy snow on Tanner Butte.
