    TZ, Great trip report. My 14 y.o. son and I were in the Gorge at Father's Day this year and your videos made me want to go back. Especially since it wasn't 100*+ and 80%+ humidity on Pinch In like when we were there! The weather looked great and the views looked better (in your videos). Thanks for posting.

    Great set of videos TZ! I really liked the way you narrated with the map, too. I really enjoyed hiking with you and hope we get a chance again soon. The time went by much too fast.

    Thanks to this fantastic hiking group for understanding when I needed to bail from the hike. I underestimated the gorge physically and mentally. When people say be prepared for the difficult hiking in the gorge, these are words to take seriously. I got dehydrated and was fearful I was going to blow out a knee or ankle. Next time I will be better prepared. Special thanks to Hedcase, TZ and Hickery for staying with me to make sure I made it up Cabin Trail safely and for getting me a ride out.

    I will always remember the kindness and understanding of this group. Hammock Forum Hikers are the best!
