Four Day West
by Ed Noonan

We experienced extremes of weather on this year's DALMAC. On the 4 Day West route we had temperatures of 88° and 96° on Thursday and Friday respectively. It rained cats and dogs and several tents were blown across the campground Friday evening in Lake City. Then, it rained again in Boyne City on Saturday evening and Sunday morning. Finally, it rained on all of us when we got to Mac City.
