Yesterday I finally got out and attempted an assault on the RMVQ route. By the time I arrived at Blue Mountain Rec Area it was evident that I would encounter bad weather and all I had was a long sleeve jersey.

I arrived at CP 1 Blue Mtn Fire Tower soaked and cold. By the time I got to CP2 at the end of the Grave Range Growler I had been rained on three more times and almost crashed because of all the muddy conditions.

I gave up the effort at the bottom of Dry Gulch and headed home. At least I tried for around 6 hours, a pretty decent effort.
