Mean Jean, the Hiking Machine
For many years Lord Kadizzle has been looking for the magic place the Spanish and of course the Indians crossed the Buckskin Gulch. There is only one place it is possible. Buckskin Gulch is the the longest continual slot canyon in the world. Today as we finally found the right place we ran into an eighty year old man, Jean Glenn. Jean was making the same hike. Jean slept under a tree last night up on the mesa. Jean said he would go down the very dangerous drop into the canyon if we would help pull him out. The Commander was adamant the Kadizzle not make the attempt. It is always a thing that puts you in your place when someone like Jean comes along. You think you are hot stuff at 61, and then you get shown up by a guy eighty who just got a new knee. When Kadizzle gets better net service he will add a picture. Tomorrow we will hike into Bucksking Gulch from the bottom.
