Elsi Holmes

This was a short hike because it was so HOT!  The total distance was only two miles.  After only one mile everyone was soaked with perspiration and it was decided to go back.  No rating today because normally this is an easy hike, but not today.  If you would like to see a few pictures of very tired hikers, click here or on the Elsi Holmes tab above.
