Warm up for SOGC and The good, the bad, and the jacked.

The real question is, did you spell "Zschiesche" from memory or did you have to look?

looked it up! It was the last on the list

The grotto looks awesome thankyou any others?

Awesome thank you keep em coming if you can

Like you recruited a new teammate each week?

The real question is: who was the best pool player?

Dylan, when I did Turk's Head Ridge, we had to scramble through a talus (Boulder) field in order to reach the first pitch.
