Howdy Everyone,

The hike up and down LV Ray Peak this weekend delivered as only Crescent Lake Valley could. Friday and Saturday indeed proved to be spectacular, warm, and made for climbing high. Sunday morning's sideways rain wasn't even too bad, and waking up to a pile of Trout's grass-puke on my Thermarest was a first. Unfortunately, Jonathan did not get a moose.

I'll have to wait until later in the week to post pictures, since I was using a couple of disposable cameras I picked up just for the trip. Luckily, another digital camera has come into my possession, by way of my friend Martha Story. She has recently bought a new camera, and decided to give me hers. Thanks a ton, Martha!
