I'll start asking everyone if they know Shida :D
Yea I'm in 2-27 so pretty much I'm in the golden boy battalion. The pictures from there are great but I had to ruck 8 miles up hill to get them.

A shot of life finishing that movement  :salute

Looks like it must have been a terrible hump...

Did you discover new Nazca lines?

When I had to?  1996, perhaps 97...  but it was 15 miles.  Uphill both ways.

When there was an actual road?  Never.   That's what the jeep is for.    :P
