The trip report

The morning hike up Mt. Wolf was cool, dry and delightful. The afternon return to base was a wash, a downpour fit for a fish. But the company was delightful, and the rewards at "base camp" (notably including, but not limited to, Jon's awesome cuisine and Mike's unlimited hospitality) made this a trip not to be missed. Good friends, good times, fireworks and a birthday celebration. What more could anyone want?
