Title: Adventure People Unite
Post by: G-man on January 02, 2009, 05:28:09 AM

So I joined an "Adventure Group" in California to help pass the down time till I get back on fires. Today, New Years Day, we all went snow shoeing in Lassen National Park. We went up to Chaos Craggs, shared food, stories and had a great time.. This is Lassen NP website:

Here are some pics of the adventure---we got caught in some bad weather up at 6,000 feet:
