Sea Dog spent three wonderful days in the loj scouting out the Great
Range

preliminary measurements of various route possibilities.

Unfortunately, while coordinating and recruiting support
crew, making gear orders and reservations, and researching the area,
oftentimes Cave Dog can only get reception on the top of peaks, such
as Gothics.
