Mammoth Trip, 2024

September 07

Gong Show and Iris Slab



We crossed the creek on the felled tree we had used last year. Initially Bill started to walk across on a parallel log, but became spooked when he couldn't reach his sticks down to the stream bed, so he followed us instead.

Stella and I shimmied and scooted across on this log, while others may just walk across. I always get wobbly kneed doing that, especially when there is water flowing below.

Crossing the log gets the adrenaline flowing in preparation for the climbing. -S.
