The Thimble 11/10/2025
Our big group mugshot without hats in the case it is needed.
It is mostly up from the beginning.
First stop will be by the Chimney Rock.
There is a moon.
Rest pause is over.
Pigeon rock.
Up to the White BM.
On top.
There is no register. BM is still here.
The Thimble is our next stop.
First, we have to get down from White.
Where is everybody?
Crossing those pesky fences.
On a way up to Thimble.
This is like climbing Mt. Everest.
Lot of rocks and bushes.
In the crack.
Almost up.
Made it.
Talked to John from about 5 mi away on walkie talkie. Where is Wit and Hersch, we don’t know.
Our big group here. Afra stayed below.
Way down is easier.
Down, down.
Here is that fence again.
On a road.
Big road.
All back? Where is Hersch? He did not show back.
So after calling 911 he got rescued from bush at night by a helicopter and a rescue team.
