While we were sitting, we saw a group of about 4 guys heading out on the trail - riding it counterclockwise. We could over hear their conversation.... the got to the top of a climb and stopped. One guy, obviously the "leader" of the group, turns and checks in with his gang "everyone doing OK? how's everyone's water?" (mind you, this is only a couple of miles into the trail, it's at least 90 degrees) He says, "I have this bottle and this one, I think I'm good, what about you?" to which his buddy replies, "I have this bottle anda FRESCA in my pack." and off they went. a FRESCA?!!? I wonder if search and rescue ended up helping these guys off??
