Fall 2011
This hike was a hastely planned hike that turned out decent. Pretty much the night before the hike, it was communicated to a friend that Dan wanted to go hiking. A series of events that I set forth in motion [little did they know that it was me that wanted to go hiking]. Anyways, Nhi, an experienced hiker and world-class adventurer, picked the place and was kind enough to drive us down to Ortega Highway to the trail-head.
The hike itself was a scenic 10 miles. The trail follows a lushed creek before gradually ascending the side of hills. Tucked away in a valley of trees was Chiquito Falls [nobodyhikesinla.com link]. It was dry as Dan's sense of humor. Curse you California's drought! Dan did not want to go on this hike. However, the more we climbed the bolder he got. Jumping on rocks and posing for the camera, he's a real exhibitionist.
Dan likes to go fast. If you're not first, you're last. I dare you to play Dan at Mario Kart. I dare you. And make sure you bring your people to watch because you might get embarass, trust me. Then after it's all done and everything. Dan made us pancakes. Pancakes. [might not actually have happened][/Charlie Murphy].
Dan wanted to go fast, so he ran. Ran down the trail like a jackel on roids. Too bad he doesn't wear the correct shoes, otherwise he would've made it all the way. It was a good hike, it took a little longer than expected but it was well rewarded because we got Chipotle. Mmm delicioso!
Dan waited until the end of the 10 miles to make a Chiquita banana joke. He's gonna make it so dry for you.
Proof!
