Gregg's mom commented after looking at the pictures, "I wouldn't want to walk that trail, much less drive it".  Great pictures! ---The Oldman.

This trip makes my short list for "adventure of a lifetime".  I salute Mark and Sherri for making it happen.

Let's go do it again.  Maybe I'll win some more money in Reno too.  It was an awesome trip!  We're ready again when all of you are!
