Looks like you had beautiful weather. My wife and I rode from Elkins to Montrose last year at this time with similar weather but the trail was closed for a bit beyond that for road construction and then again beyond Parsons for trail maintenance. Is it completely open from Elkins to Thomas now? It's a beautiful and quiet ride when the weather is fine!
