A special thanks to all participants and volunteers for their commitment, taking on this sprawled out challenge in quickly rising temperatures.
Please remind your friends to practice leaving no trace and respect our trails and natural open spaces. It is never okay to paint rocks. Remember the use of our trails is a privilege, and not a right.
