So here I am at the starting line. If you've ever wondered what it looks like when you get there at 6 in the morning...here you go. There is usually music, bonfires, and lots and lots of freezing bodies that have to pee every 30 seconds either because of nervousness or they are just plain cold! On the bus ride up we kept seeing white, but couldn't really tell what it was because it was so dark. The sun just barely starting creeping over the gigantic rock formations and we could make out a dusting of...SNOW! I just prayed that it would go away before we started our journey back down the canyon.
You can see how cold everyone around me is by the way they are shoving their hands as far into their pockets as they can, and they all seem to have the same look on their faces. It's the " What am I doing up this early?" face! It's all part of the adventure!
