NCOBS rocks.

On Thursday afternoon of last week, I got a curious phone call. A group of instructors from the North Carolina Outward Bound School are on the "service bus". They're driving across the country, doing good deeds and sneaking in some climbing, rafting, hiking, ...

They were looking for a service project here in the park. Talk about coincidences - a new memorial telescope arrived last week, and it was exactly the right time to build a platform for it. The coincidences continued - just as the crew arrived at the trailhead, we were met by the family for whom we were building the memorial telescope.

This is apparently the proper way to use a McCloud.

It was a remarkable experience to have them here. They did great work, they were incredibly enthusiastic, and they set the place on fire with good vibes. Joy.
