A report from the front line


That's Steve, cub reporter, and behind him are

    Intrepid explorers mastered the treacherous reaches of the famed Hurricane Creek Park in northern Alabama today, unfazed by a driving rain and slippery rocks. The party of five risked catastrophe as they struggled to the top of this spectacular natural formation, pausing only to admire the rapid flow and steep drops of the magnificent water features. The rains forced a swollen river to overmount its banks, adding interest and further adventure to the group's explorations.

The group hopes to reach a Supercross racing event near Birmingham, Alabama, where skilled dirt biker Steve O. and friends will serve as official race flaggers, as two others watch from the stands at this exciting professional event. 

Steve also works as a cub reporter and photographer for this blog, submitting reports on the progress on the road trip from Minnesota. He submitted these photos:
