| 0:30.5 | We are currently waiting for our shuttle service back to our car. |
| 0:34.0 | And I think I'm going to have him drive me to the nearest airport so I can fly home because |

| 1:33.5 | at me the whole way that I was a bitch. I was so relieved when we got to the trailhead because |
| 1:38.4 | he calmed down. That was an hour or so ago, but should I report him to the park rangers before I leave? |
| 1:44.7 | I just googled it and he could seriously do jail time for this. |
| 1:48.4 | What should I do? |
