It’s officially fall now and dry suit season is here. A truly beautiful weekend in the Gorge. As always everyone got to take something home. For some it was glory and some a humbling. We venture out into the wilderness for peace and to learn something about ourselves. Sometimes that comes at a cost. We learn and better ourselves from our mistakes as much as our triumphs. Winners are just people to stubborn to quit. Make no mistake my friends we were all winners this weekend.
