The TGU challenge format was stolen from another BB for an AO in NC, but modified for the TGU (which takes about ten to fifteen seconds to do one).YHC thought that we would only get eight and got very excited when round nine rolled around, but that was then end and no one could get the nine in the two minutes. By that time there had been 36 TGUs done not counting the ones done in the final round. Nicely done Men.

YHC got to the AO a little early and was alone until 5:27 when people started rolling in. In that time he put down a tarp for the PAX as it was cold and wet and there would be a lot of ground work. it was not used until the CoT.

It was cold but it was great. Thanks again for letting me lead.
