Trip Report

I did not collect $2.00 from Christine who sent in her renewal check a few days earlier or from Penny - Margo's sister and a member of the Mazamas. In the past and perhaps now, we don't collect a trip from members pf other Clubs. Four faster hikers took Trail 4 while the other four of us opted for the main trail. On top some were cold and headed down while the rest of us stuck around hoping to see the moonrise. Finally we gave up and just appreciated he beautiful skyscape before heading down the trail.
