We walked to Lunatic Fringe from the visitors center.  When we got to that
hill you are referencing - I looked at Tim and said "We have to walk up
that?"  Right before we got to the trail I told him he was going to have to
carry me up the rest of the way.  Lucky for him we found the trail!

Was the cache that Bruce and the group did on Sunday in the same vicinity as
Lunatic Fringe?

The campground was closed.  They were doing construction in there.  The
K-Team and I did not see the trail and went all the way to the top of the
steep hill.  (Cory was running up most of the way!)  Once we got to the top,
we had to bushwack down a very steep hill to get back to the trail.  The
trail, other than the first 10 feet at the begining is in very good shape.
Mean Gene and RGS were standing right at the begining of the trail and we
were telling them it was there.  At first they did not belive us.  But we
fianlly got them to walk into the weed patch and discover the trail was
there.  But heck, it was fun clmbing up that hill in 98 degree weather!

  Yea, I remember having to drive up that steep hill, what a pain. I parked
at a small pull off area about halfway up the hill and ran directly over to
the cache. That hill was something. I guess that road is closed now for
campground renovations?

    I did Lunatic Fringe a coupla weeks ago, in on the closed road, and
started up the 'chat' road up the steep hill, and luckily saw the trail to
the left marked by a small sign, sure glad I didn't have to climb that whole
hill!
