Back to School Plankfest @ #Turning Point

9 Pax enjoyed a slight breeze as the VSF was planted in the #gloom @ Turning Point.  Some things were known about this morning (1st posting since back-to-school, monthly PT test) while others were surprises (bear crawl ladder, plank-o-rama).  Excellent work put in by all the Pax today.  Turning Point is always a good place for a more intimate posting experience (which YHC prefers, frankly) & of course that mother of a hill they’ve got back there.

Conditions: 75 deg, 80% humidity w/ a slight breeze

  1. I can always count on Ginger for a creative beat down, especially when I loathe bear crawls and planking. Nice to get to Turning Point, too. I survived the man-eating grass. Cheers.
