Rolli and Lauren in the spring of 2005, and the blue Xs show
approximately where we camped. I've taken the trails that cut
across sections of that southern loop, and they aren't as pretty

her son couldn't keep up the business. It's the end of an era.
They still sell Ale 8 however, so if you take a trip there and
this map helps you, drink one for me. :)  Friday, August 18,
