    Default Trail Days 2005 Photos

    Well, as usual, Billville set up camp at Trail Days. Despite the frequent thrunderstorms, it was a GREAT Trail Days. Some people went up to Whitetop Mtn and dia a very large cleanup of bottles, cans and other trash. The renegade parade was just fantastic. Lots of highlights, lots of good people.

    Meeting people from Whiteblaze was great. I was glad to finally put a face to Sgt Rock and AT Troll - thanks for this great site, guys! (and thanks for the beer, Rock). Rock was also one of our celebrity judges for the Ridiculous Gear Contest on Friday night. The WB Gathering on Saturday didn't exactly go as planned, but I did get to meet a bunch of people and talk trail for a while... which was the whole point anyway. Next year - we meet at the Dairy King! I wish that we could do this more often - real world gatherings are great to remind us that we all have something in common. The differences that we have on the site disappear when we hang out in person. Which is just beating around the bush for what I want to say - I Love Lone Wolf

    The following album is a Billville look at Trail Days. Mostly, there is a LOT of general silly behavior. However, if you are easily offended (there are couple of pictures of pictures of nekkid butts) you might want to skip this album. Otherwise, enjoy the duct-tape costumes, the ridiculous gear contest and BooBoo's Big Adventure.

    And since everything we do has to be a contest, I present to you a few photos RIPE for some good comments:

    I hope you enjoyed Trail Days, and if you were not there, I hope the photos brought you a little taste of what you missed. As always, comments are encouraged - for fun and for identification purposes. I am terrible with names, especially when I meet a ton of people like I did last weekend. Enjoy!

    What's Trail Days without a little photo-nudity?

    I was there and I see that I still missed a lot of the fun. Now that I have met most of these hikers, the photos are even funnier. I'm already making plans for next year to be at TD. Thanks for posting these pix. Rancid
