“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.” – Mark Jenkins

Lion's Head Crazies

The other day, after class, we hiked Lion’s Head, which is arguably the least amount of effort for the best view. It is a great hike; we tried blazing our own trail for a while before we finally caught up with the real path. They even created a quasi-rock climbing option with substantial handgrips and chains up the rock race. The view is spectacular.

When we got to the top, we found a German trick biker, popping wheelies and doing jumps on the rocks overlooking the rocks and shrubbery many many feet below. It was thrilling to even watch. Apparently, he just does this for sport and his friend photographs him. I told him he should submit these pictures to sports illustrated. They would be a hit; perhaps that spoils the fun in it.
