We had the pleasure of being joined by the Great Dick van Loon for this hike.  We were eleven days in the park doing the circuit and it was a hell of a good trip.  As I write this, we are just preparing to leave for our celebration dinner.  I suspect that there could be red wine involved although at this early stage I can neither confirm nor deny such an accusation.  The highlight of the trip was seeing Dick again after such a long time, the lowlight was having to tolerate his never ending torrent of explosive, odiferous gas.
