Mission Peak, CA

“We can’t let Mother Nature stop us.” And so was the motto of our fearless C-Ya squadron, consisting of Alex, Charles, Chris, Christine, Marla, Mark, and Pankaj. Braving strong winds, rain, and even hail flying at us horizontally at the top, we made it up and down the mountain with nary a hitch. Despite of (or partly because of) the weather, it was a lot of fun.

Happy troopers taking a quick camera break in the midst of a hail storm!
