Petit Byahaut (July 15-17)

Coming down was harder than going up (Jul 17, 2004, 01:20pm) Since out trip included a segment on a sailboat, we tried to pack very light with as few bags as possible. However, one space sucking contraption that we dragged all the way from home was a set of hiking poles for Daphne, just for this hike. Here you see that Daphne needed the poles, especially on the climb down, to save her knees.
