Weather conditions are brutal for Jen

We are up at Paradise Meadows on Mt. Washington, waiting for Jen, Norm Hann and Garth to descend from their trek through Strathcona Park.

Jen managed to get through to us on a cell phone and said they are about 6-7 hours behind, as they were trapped in extremely nasty conditions, and the going is slow.

Eric and Stan from 1 i Open Productions are up here with us. They are a film production company out of Seattle, Washington and they have been catching footage of the Vancouver Island Quest from the start. Check out the cool post Eric put up today - http://1iopenproductions.blogspot.com/
