Rise and shine


As a smart college student, I should take every chance I get to sleep in, right? Of course not! That would be too logical, instead as a new coleader in the hiking club, I decided to lead a sunrike, otherwise known as a sunrise hike. Dartmouth really has a way with abbreviations, let me tell you.
We parted school at 6AM sharp on a short hike to the Gile fire tower with beautiful views of the valley. The only problem was that there were no views to be had and no sunrise to be seen. We did see the first snow out of everyone at school. I don't know who threw the first ball of slush, but by the time we got back to campus, we didn't even bother to get out our raincoats.

Sleep is so overrated!
