The Latest R. Hill Shots on Dave's

[John Swindler]

I remember the single track as sort of a lazy "S" curve to avoid two sharp 
right angle curves.  But that was almost 35 years ago on Sunday/Holiday pass 
trips.  The other recollection is that terrain on Talbot St. was flat, not 
as appears to be the case in R. Hill photo.
