First trip in the White
Mountains.
Louie wasn't ready to be
picked up in Lowell when Dave, Mark, and Steve showed up. He had
gotten "lucky" the night before.
This was a cold trip with
poor equipment. Not much sleep was had.
Lot's of snow on ground
which formed large snow bowl/fire pit.
Somebody defecated on the
frozen river, which was later used by cross country skiers. Toilet
paper was snagged on skiers skis.
A tree was "pulled"
down using rope. Tree fell towards the pullers, a-la Looney Tunes.
They couldn't run fast enough to get out of the way. Nobody got
hurt.
A big cabin tent was rented
along with red plastic snowshoes from Natick Outdoor Store. Louie
brought beer - It froze solid.
It is obvious that Louie
is not a good worker and fails to pull his own weight!
Mark gets a speeding ticket
on the way home.
