[pct-l] Mt. Humphrey Expedtion

[Tortoise]

Switchback, oh Switchback.

Something is wrong, very wrong.

I looked up Mount Humphrey on Google Earth. Apparently there 
is no tram to the top, no restaurant, not even a road. And 
the top is several miles from the trailhead.  You are really 
going for EXTREME ADVENTURE this time.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for your safe return.

I hope Reinhold will stay on standby to launch a rescue 
mission if needed.

Expedition members will arrive in Flagstaff on Thursday, May 31 to check out the local scene.  Copious amounts of food will be consumed at Cracker Barrel restaurant and then partying with the local mountaineers.
