Thanks for sharing this MartinG. I wish I'd been around in the days he was actively posting here. It was stumbling upon a trip log of Mark's back in 2012 that reawakened my love of the Park and fueled a desire to connect with other like-minded people. I've always secretly wished I would cross paths with him on a trip up there so I could thank him personally.
Looks like this will be a great series! Love the route--I don't know how many times I've done that Kiosk to Manitou run but suffice to say, it's a personal favourite. Can't wait to see the rest of the trip!
