Holiday Weekend at Rumbling Bald

This past weekend, in the bitter cold, the South Carolina crew descended upon Rumbling Bald. We brought with us equal measures of courage, valor, and fear. We delivered our hearts' payload upon the boulders, and lost ourselves in the passion of battle. Fingers bled, dogs howled, grown men wept. Ultimately, gravity gained the day, but we all vowed to return, stronger and wiser. Yeah, right. We'll see how that goes...
