Find the Trail

The clock says five thirty A.M.   Today's mission is to go to the top of Four Peaks turn right and find the top of the trail we have been working on.  Five of us with Kadizzle driving the jeep will make the trek.  Kadizzle will try to come up the trail from the bottom after he drops off the top crew.  This year the mission has been to complete trails at the top.  Many of these trails have gone into disuse and will be lost forever if we do not re establish them.  An interesting aspect of the mountain trails is how they go through exospheres.  On the top the trails are in a pine forest.  As the trail descends the vegetation changes from wet to drier and drier.  By the time you reach the bottom you are in a much more desert environment. This all happens in a matter of five miles.
