The Montrail Brotherhood

As I was on a relatively hilly and technical section of the trail near the end of the first of two 12 mile loops yesterday in Rock Creek Park I heard a young man say to me, "Hey, Montrail's best!", as he came running up behind me. He noticed I was wearing Montrail's Vitesse (he was running in Montrail's Continental Divide). I replied, "How are you doing?" He said, "Great brother"! I then watched as he and his dog quickly skimmed the rocks and were soon out of sight. It put a smile on my face and a quickened step in my pace.
