I have to disagree. Why didn't Steve or UB come to Travis or myself personally before openly criticize a fellow club member (active one at that)? Lot of unnecessary drama. Yes. I get not liking our county flag being shown disrespect. And maybe I should have posted a different pic. But, other than that pic that has been taken down, I didn't see any time during the trip that Travis was being disrespectful to it.
I did! Check your PM dates. Non-response got bolder efforts. As an aside note I also reported the post to the moderator when I first seen it. Then of course there is the question of why no one had a problem with it as it was happening? No argument on the trail leader being a very upstanding and valuable club member, I wish I had a dollar for every mistake I've made over the years! And yet, speaking of drama, this is still the public side of the forum. Maybe all this drama could be removed from a very awesome trail report with exceptional pictures.
