Before the start of every sailing season, the entire team takes a hike up Cardigan Mountain together as a team bonding experience and a way for people to get to know their teammates better.
One of his favorite parts of the season was doing this hike with his team.
Once again the informant stated there were parts of this ritual that he left out, as he felt it wasn’t right to share them with people as they are sailing traditions only.
