Write Up:
A group of twelve GMS and Over the Hill Gang members met on a overcast but mild temperature morning and ascended the summit of Big Mountain via the Ben Parsons Benny Up route. After summiting, several brave individuals sledded down the steep slopes - some more in control than others. The majority of the group descended the Big Ravine route over to the Christ statue and down the Chair 2 lift line scavenging for lost skier items. Cash, a coffee cup, air pods, toy car, a thumb drive of Hillary Clinton's emails and other valuable items were found. A great day!
