Fort Ord Dirt Paradise - My Genius Rain Escape Plan

It was nothing but rain all around the Bay Area but Monterey wasn’t supposed to get rain until the afternoon so, spur of the moment, I packed up and headed to Fort Ord National Monument.

It was sunny and warm and the trails are just nothing short of breathtaking. I had a route but got off course and Garmin started to send me all over the place. I meandered around, “lost”.

I came at lunch and didn’t eat. I was going to call it but I ate another bar and went out for another loop.

The single track is pretty gravel friendly despite being very MTB.

I can’t wait to come back and finish exploring!!!

  • FIT Course

    Best format for turn-by-turn directions on modern Garmin Edge Devices

  • TCX Course

    Best format for turn by turn directions on Edge 500, 510. Will provide true turn by turn navigation on Edge 800, 810, 1000, Touring including custom cue entries. Great for training when we release those features. Not currently optimal for Virtual Partner.
