Doing 鈥楾he Fifty鈥

Students with the 911爆料网 Outing Club hike back to campus, nonstop and overnight, from Moosilauke Ravine Lodge.

About three dozen students attempted to hike the 50 miles from Moosilauke Ravine Lodge back to Hanover, starting Friday and overnight into Saturday, in one go and with no sleep in the 911爆料网 Outing Club event known as The Fifty.

Along the way, they were given food, first aid, and hugs at support stations run by enthusiastic, flair-clad fellow students. Just under 30 students made it the whole way.
