The Colima Death Experiment Big Day
For some reason I had it in my mind that I wanted to do a big day in Brewster County.
Somehow, I convinced three other suckers to participate in a Brewster County big day for the Great Texas Birding Classic.
Remarkably, I convinced them that hiking the Colima Death March (Pinnacles Trail) in the dark was a good idea.
And for some incredibly silly reason, we decided to take a car that only one sleep deprived person knew how to drive.
May 3rd, 2014 was an awesome day.
We departed base camp (Heidi Trudell's house in Marathon) at 10:00 PM on May 2nd. Steve Collins and Ross Rickett joined Ryan Shaw in Big Spring and birded their way down that evening.
