Things are looking good now. We are heading out and expect to be on climbs this afternoon. Tomorrow for certain!!!

Haas, we won't be in cell service for the next 4 days because we'll be in the Creek.
Look for the only Taco from KY and that's us!
Rhino says, sack it up, bring your rack and get out here!

Cheers!
