We will split into two groups. One group will traverse from East to West. The other group will traverse from West to East. We will exchange car keys in the middle. This is a delightful scramble. The Bathtub Basins are seldom visited, are shallow enough that if the sun is shining they are warm enough to swim in, and the area is crawling with blueberry bushes.
