Tour 1993

Little is known about the elusive Mark Hopkins, and on this tour, our goal was to learn more.  Here he is, emerging from "Redwood", tired, groggy, and unaware that he is stepping into a war zone.  An all out war began on the second morning of tour, a snowball fight of epic proportions, pitting the old buck against the young upstarts in the clan.

Here, he looks on in mild interest, keeping a neutral outlook, and not allowing himself to get involved.

The Artillery Began.

Now the Mark has vanished, seeking shelter behind the van

Has Mark joined the fray?  Has he chosen sides?

He has!  Monte draws the Elusive Mark into the fray

The oldbuck has the upstarts on the run.

"Wait a second, there's more of us than there are of him!"  Run, Monte, Run!!!
