Trip Report

Thanks to Darko for co leading, Pat Soussan for starting out early with a guest, for Mari Balwin for picking up litter, for Larry, Dave, Jane, and Pierre after some confusion about the departure location finding their way to the top to sign in, and most of all for the sun's cooperation shining through the pedestal slot. A great evening especially for photographers.
