“The road outside of camp leads to a bridge that has been blockaded by police. Occasionally a group of activist will march out onto the bridge to challenge the police posted behind concertina wire on the other side. As people were leaving one of these brief challenges an activist came strolling down the road from the camp toward the bridge pulling a sled. When he got close to the bridge, he began to climb a steep hill which parallels the road to the west. When he reached the top, he made one run with his sled then began to walk back toward camp. “ - olsongetty olsongetty
