Thanks Tom for the story.... haven't heard that one before !

Hardly ever see Shannon Falls in Shape... it's almost sea level.

I think I can only ever recall actually seeing it in shape once, driving by. Very impressive!

Great story, Tom! I liked:

As we hiked out that day, I tallied our injuries. My face was cut and I had a badly bruised knee. Eric had a bruised rib and a broken thumb. Josh had a hole in his calf, and Geno really, really needed to change his pants.

My favorite part because it is so true.
