Durango-A-Go-Go
A week after "roughing it" at the Oh-be campground eating hotdog macaroni and swatting mosquitos, the Ledyard graduates headed down to Durango for homemade meals, showers, beds, mountain biking, and a lil bit of creeking. Thanks to Alfie's parents for their kind hospitality and Nate for fearlessly leading us so we didn't unsuspectingly fall of Adrenaline Falls like the staff at Four Courners said we would.
