<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My son Cache, along with Steely Dan, Scoutmeister,
Jugz, Mr. Fusion, Pace, Truckballs, and another unnamed hiker left
Winthrop yesterday (10/05/07) around 1:00 PM. They plan to hike the
Ross Lake East Bank Trail to the Canadian Border and then make their way to
Manning Park. They felt pretty confident about this trail since it is at a lower
elevation. Sounds like those ahead of them have been successful so I feel
they will be as well. Holly Ayers</FONT></DIV>
