With the Sun and Blair Mtn Plateau behind me,
I don’t tarry long at the “edge”. I know from experience, it’s a lot further down to the Meadows than it looks.
We’re talking miles and hours.
First, a quick study of the terrain. Gotta find the easiest route down. Second, do I wanna go to the left or right? Or straight ahead?
WHERE’S Wilson most likely to be?
I think I see a road in the valley. Skirting the green pastures. The topo says those are orchards.
!!! FOOD !!!
And I see some little dot of something yellowish. Close along the roadside. Maybe a vehicle???
Don’t see any cabins.
Yet.
I choose a route and set right off. I’m hungry and thirsty.
But, most of all, I wanna see my buddy.
“I’m close, Wilson.”
My adrenaline is pumpin’ now !!!!!
TOTALLY STOKED !!!
“I’m off to see the Wizard.”
