Beka and I left our mark on Hospital Rock Run Trail in Jones Gap State Park. We didn't realize the irony behind the name Hospital Rock until we were half way up the side of the mountain, gasping for air, and thinking about nothing except the sharp pains shooting through our aching legs. Thank goodness for the process of Fermentaion (a little science joke for all of you who know the limits of Cellular Respiration).
On the trail we encountered shear cliff faces with cables to aid in climbing vertically, trees shaped like prehistoric creatures, boulders the size of cars, and a beautiful waterfall near the end of our 8 mile/6 hour hike.

I love it and I don't even understand the whole "fermentation" thing.
It has to do with your "lactic acid" remarks -- a little something something I learned from Dr. Crawford at ole IWU!
