Day 13 – Hawk Hill and lots of Paths
I am way behind on making these blog posts. It is currently mid-October and I’m just now getting around to catching up with hikes I wrapped up in July! So the next several narratives are going to be limited to … Continued
Video Stream – Day 12
This is both a fun and torturing video stream. It’s great to hear the kids when they are getting along and having fun and not so great to hear them screaming, arguing and complaining. If you want to skip right … Continued
Day 12 – Snakes on a Trail
Given the attention grabbing title, I’ll lead with some spoilers. Yes, we saw a snake. Yes, Wesley almost stepped on it. No, it did not bite us. With that out of the way, I’ll start from the beginning. The kids … Continued
Video Stream – Day 11
This may be the most entertaining of the videos depending on your point of view. The guys and I chatted about all kinds of topics from the mundane to the unique. And occasionally, we just enjoyed the quiet of the … Continued

Video Stream – Day 6, 7, 8, and 9
At this point I’m not entirely sure why I’m still recording these videos. At some point I may have the time to go through the videos and edit them into a highlight reel or do some high-speed condensed version. But … Continued
Day 9 – Swamps and Parking Illegally
Blogging is lots of work and I’m behind on my posts so this description will be short and sweet, comparatively. For the first time in this Challenge, I parked in an unofficial, non-approved, non-DCR spot. It was both thrilling and … Continued
Day 8 – The Elevation Strikes Back
It seems like I’m destined to spend FOREVER covering all the trails in the 4000 area. The plan for this day was to wrap up the section and then move on but sadly that did not happen for reasons which … Continued
