Where the spirit leads the feet will follow.
Down distant paths for unmapped miles.
Heads forget but hearts remember:
The art of living knows no bounds.

* Solo Sam Biking The Buttes

With Marcie out of action because of abdominal surgery, I took the opportunity to ride my bike around the Sutter Buttes near Marysville, CA. I went clockwise for the small town of Sutter, which made the ride about 40 miles. With some low laying clouds and fog, I never got the view of the Buttes I was hoping for, but still a nice ride.

The first 25 miles or so were great...being out on country roads with the only traffic being the mail carrier, but after that, a lot of traffic. I have to say through, all the motorist were very respectful and kind, and went out of their way to give me plenty of room.

* Sutter Buttes Transect

With the Sutter Buttes Regional Land Trust, we did the High Transect hike lead by landowner Marty Steidlmayer and Geologist/Volcanologist Brain Hausback.

Starting at Bragg Canyon on the west side, we traveled mostly cross-country for seven miles, ending at the historic Dean Ranch on the east side.
