2/20 we set off for Colden at about 7:45 from the Loj, with a group of 10, mostly from the ADK HPs 'climb them all' challenge. The group sort of split into 2, with the hares in front and the turtles (us) in back. We made pretty good time, over mostly hard packed trails. We arrived a few minutes after the hares, and found them drinking whiskey and smoking cigars! :eek:

A *LARGE* cookie (not Quicky) was also handed around, along with some 46R Pale Ale! Marc H finished the 46/115 and was given 2 patches. Also, Alistair finished the W46 and was given a rocker. Congrats guys!

Speaking of the cookie, coldfeet actually used the cookie platter for a sled!

Now for the subject line! :eek:

I had the first Quicky! Then Laurie gave Coldfeet a Quicky! :eek: Then he gave Spicedoubt a Quicky! :eek: :eek: It was a lot of fun! :D For those of you with your minds in the gutter, here is a Quicky (G rated). So yeah, the butt sliding was pretty good, maybe a '7' or so. We were all back to the Loj by 3:15, and headed off to watch Neil and Rik cavort about in the river behind the Ark, while wearing almost nothing! :eek: :D We didn't get any good pics, but I sure hope someone did!
