Two PAX dared to conquer the gloom in the early morning. In order to accomplish two things, YHC decided on a shorter route. What two things you ask? I’m glad you did…

WARMUP:
Headlamp check and OYO stretching

THE THANG:
Reason 1 for the shorter route: to get in some merkins!! Periodically, YHC called a halt and PAX performed 10 merkins OYO and continued on the trails.
Interestingly, the gate to Timberline Trail was closed, so PAX was diverted around the lollipop. A total of 4 stations was called on the route and then another 10 at the AO for 50 merkins!
The second reason for the shorter route:

MARY:
Coffee and time to chat! Gotta get those in, lol! Hope to see y’all out soon.
