| Comments: |
Had a little too much fun for Cinco De Mayo yesterday, and definitely paid for it today. Plan was to go up Boott Spur then over to Iso and down Glen Boulder, but I just didn't have it in me. Tapped out at the Davis/GB Junction while Stacy and Denise continued on. Top portion of Glen Boulder trail is not a good time, some biblical post-holes and tight spots working through the trees. While I managed to escape unharmed I saw another fella come down with blood on both forearms. |
