Section prep update

I got this photo and email from TTC’s Dan Brown this morning:

Section11Griff, here’s a photo of a section up by Lampkin Falls, freshly taped, and with helper Sam Stutz in the middle. The sections are being finalized now and we’re in the final stages of preparation for the Wagner Cup!

12 of the 15 sections will be very close by the paddock, but 3 are up atop the mountain for the hardy hikers.

I’ll be arriving at the TTC late Wed. night this week for this weekend’s Trials Training Days 2008, and staying thru next Tues. morning. So I’ll be posting many more Wagner Cup 2008 section preview photos Real Soon Now.
