Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Buckshot, and I am an old gunfighter that has been in the Vegas area for a very long time. There are not many gunfighters left, let alone old ones, for apparent reasons. I have survived hemp neck ties, been blown up in outhouses, and shot in the streets, and I am still around.

This was mine and Doug's first backpacking trip! We got on the mountain at around 3:00pm, holy cow were those backpacks heavy!! We had initially intended to get to Upper Bells Reservoir to camp, but also had another place in mind in case we got too tired to make it to the top. About a 1/2 mile in we realized the stop before Upper Bells was going to be necessary haha... those packs were so heavy.

If you haven’t discovered this secret yet, it is high time you did: running a race with friends is a whole different experience than running solo!  If you would like the motivation of being signed up for a running event, but you dread the drudgery of running alone, then a relay race might be just the thing for you.
