Best Post - OKiehikers Cattail Canyon, although I like ALL of OKiehikers posts, this post solved a long running question for me (since I heard of the rescue effort through the rumor mill not first hand).
Best Thread - Muse's where am I. Very entertaining and invoked group participation
Best Photo - Vipers Lion, this also wins the big #%&*'s award for climbing up on a rock and taking a picture of a lion on the other side of the rock. Some of OKiehikers pictures from Cattail Canyon and Mariscal Mtn tie for this award but since I am already voting him best Post he gets 2nd place for best Photo... TWWG
