Well, my adventure began early, on the way to this hang, and ended early. Still, it included a Friday night under the stars, surrounded by dear friends around the campfire. Beautiful clear skies, 70's daytime, 50's nighttime.
The adventure began with my car overheating after traveling 175 miles with only 25 to go. Parked on the shoulder of a 2-lane country road, I called O-boy, who I knew would be on the same route as me. After telling him where I broke down, to my delight, he said he was only 20 minutes behind me! He took me to buy coolant & by the time we returned to my car, the engine had cooled. With fresh coolant, O-boy followed me the hang, with no further problems.
My trip included only the first night, spent about a mile from the trailhead. I had gotten a head cold earlier in the week. Still recovering, I didn't want chance the long hike of Sat/Sun & get sick again.
But that one night with friends was more than worth the 400 mile round trip. And to think I almost didn't make it if it hadn't been for O-boy coming to my rescue.
