Last year I took a trip to Bryson City, North Carolina, the location of an amazing system of mountain bike trails known as Tsali. Tsali is positioned in western North Carolina on the edge of the Smoky Mountains. The Tsali trails wind around a lake called Fontana Lake, which offers plenty of scenery when you slow down enough to take notice. Following are a couple of pictures from the trip:
In these photos, I'm catching a little air off of a jump located on the Right Loop of the Tsali trail, as well as cruising by Fontana Lake on the Left Loop. The jump picture shows the last in a series that provided a change of pace from the fast descents and smooth climbs. The cruise picture shows how the water in the lake was lowered due to dam maintenance.
