Yeah, sorry I missed you guys. I had to attend the funeral of a good friend. But your trip sounded like a good one. Pretty cool you could travel together.

Nice report! I think this is the first time I've read a trip report where I had first talked to the person about their trip. Like I talked to you about at wingnight....that boulder field is nasty when wet and I also had a painful fall there with a pack and canoe on. I still don't know how I managed to get back up.
