23. A Year of Wonderland~ Raven, the River Maker and Fording The Raging Pyramid and Kautz Rivers.
The story of Raven the River Maker. After our last evening at Devil’s Dream, we slowly gather our thoughts, celebrate our wills and determination and are ready to hike out an easy final 6 miles to Longmire for a burger and fries. After just enough water to cook our breakfast, we quickly learn we must ford the raging Pyramid and Kautz Creeks and Sandy is in over her taped toes and sandals, that are beginning to fall apart. Can it be done safely? We also find a solo hiker combing the banks for the lost trail as we zig zag looking for a way across. Could this be help from Raven the Hero.
