Trip Report

Thirty three attended the fourth annual Stocking Stuffer event filling the lodge with cheerful conversation. Everyone pitched to decorate, arrange, and organize the setup and cleanup. There were salads, breads, desserts and six delicious soups to sample. Thanks to Joella who coordinated the food and inspires us with her concerns for the homeless. We collected 100 pairs of socks to give to the Egan Warming Center. That included the ones that were dropped off later by those who forgot to bring them. Generosity made our hike and lunch a special way to start the holiday season.
