...and our shuttle back to the trailhead |
Ready for a great day....and it was! All forty of us. |

Dorothy protecting the "house" |
||
New sign in the wilderness |
...and new signs on the trail |
....so we begin our hike to the crag |
...so off to the crag we go |
||
Some neat fungi |
Those ahead, waiting on those behind |
|
We first stop at Haley Falls |
||
.. and do a little exploring |
Some go to the lower falls |
|
Linda is quite a trooper |
...she takes the hard way back up |
But to say face, Bruce has to help a little! |

This seahorse rock may not be here the next time we arrive. |

The Crag |

|
...and finally arriving at the Woods Place |
... and a large crowd |
...and lots of food |
SEE! |
||
and SEE! |
...so we dig right in |
|
Those that are late have to stand in line |
...but it is quite worth it |
After eating, it is just great to sit and rest |
Lou and Lynne |
Dale and Barbara |

Cave Mountain will not be the same, but Bob's spirit will always be here. It was evident today. Thank you Dr. Chester for all the lives you have touched. We count it a privilege to have been your friend. We will miss you. |
