| Comments: |
The first 4000 footers for the Prince of Darkness. Massage Lady has 2 more to go for the 48. My third time for the Bonds. Buffalo Andy had a good time. Prince of Darkness separated from the rest of us and encountered a bear between West Bond and Bond. Almost had to change his pants. Scotty ran into a hornet nest under a rock as we crossed the Pemi. Ran for his life over the cobbles. He got stung numerous times. He is ok. We crossed Pemi because we were beat and didn't want to deal with the railroad ties. |
