Back at the James Reserve after a day of hiking, Shout-out goes down. Despite surviving a brutally hot day of gathering, she is taken out by a game of hearts. The SCAP group has initiated Table of Champions, a hearts tournament that will last for the duration of the trip. It's a card-game battle to the death and while one will win, another teammate is destined to lose.
Before this tournament was instated, another competition was raging high on Thomas Mountain. The Blue Team and Orange Team were locked in battle to see who could collect the most plant specimens on their rides up the two sides of the peak. Blue team collected more specimens, but orange team excelled in their willingness to take on hardcore plants that blue team couldn't handle.
After a bumpy ride home, the Orange Team decided to celebrate their victory with a local delicacy: Idyllwild snow-cones. Flavors included pink lemonade, strawberry-banana, and tangerine-lime.
Following this adventure, the card-battle began and many more will rise and fall in the game even before the day is out. Let the games begin!
The Orange Team (Hayden aka Finger-breaker, Mari aka Shout-out, Jesse aka Tex-Mex, and Stacy aka Chapeau.)
