"After this hill, it's almost all downhill all the way back to camp."
I tell ya, I have not yet decided if I am returning next year, but if I do, I will not be taking those comments so seriously! You get finished that one big hill thinking that's it only to see another one waiting for you!
Funny, that is exactly what I felt too!! I was telling people that throughout the night I could feel someone to the right of me....but my tent mate was on my left!
