Miller Fork guidebook found

I found a MF guide on the dirt road exiting the parking area (likely placed on roof, then ejected on the bumpy ride out). If you lost a guide this past weekend, please contact me with distinguishing info about what's inside the guide.

Re: Kid's game

Yeah, small fingers can be an advantage, but being short is generally a disadvantage. FYI, Cameron (age 11) is almost 90 lbs and is nearly 5'0" tall...so he's not much different in size from some of the adult lady crushers. You gonna dis Sasha, Lynn, Whitney, etc? Bottomline: the route "fi...

Re: Past weekend at Muir
