Then we went back to LW over the Black Pond bushwack. Most of Osseo Trail we broke out and then...

    Head lamps

    Stenlight makes a heck of a headlamp - it's made for cavers so very sturdy and waterproof - only problem is that it's made to clip on a helmet - I converted it by using parts from other headlamps to fit on my head. The rechargable batteries lasts a long time. More info...

    Stormtrooper seen on Mt Adams!

    Several witnesses saw a Stormtrooper summit Mt Adams on Saturday 10/31. However, there seems to be a lack of photographic evidence. Earlier during the day a very scared caretaker at Crag Camp took this photo of what seems to be Darth Vader right outside Crag Camp: [/URL][/IMG] Did anyone else...
