This weekend Chris and I decided to go offroading and hike Olancha Peak. Matt and his dog, Mocha,
came and the three of us met up with Chris' friends Ryan and Brenna, who came from the Bay Area. We
found a good camping spot and started our hike the next morning. Matt and Mocha decided not to
continue, so it was just the four of us. The last day, Ryan and Brenna headed home while Chris,
Matt and I went rock climbing nearby.
