| On Thanksgiving weekend, 2005, Mike and
Connie Thompson led a trip to Cerro Gordo. There was a wonderful
dinner for Thanksgiving also, no one went hungry!
Friday we waited for the last of the
group to arrive and just did a short run, came back to camp and had a
nice dinner and campfire. Saturday it was up and on the trail,
first stop Cerro Gordo. We had a tour of the silver town that was
once occupied by 4000 people. Then, to the Salt tram that took
salt from Saline Valley to the Owens Valley.
The Askier Jeep did well on the 37 mile loop as well
as all the Jeeps, the altitude at times got to be over 9000 feet. The
new bees the The Thurstons - Randy, Janelle, Hannah, Sophie, Grace, and
Ethan, plus dog Chance also did very well for being with the Trailmasters for
the weekend and going through parts of the trial they did for the first
time. Welcome and Good Job! |
