  • Early in the morning, Colt Hamrick (in blue jeans) loaded his two kids and a large wooden cross into his pickup truck and drove from Macon, GA to the base of Stone Mountain. Hamrick said he was baptized two weeks ago and felt the need to build this cross and carry it up a mountain. Hamrick carried it by himself most of the way, but after reaching the top of the rail, Shaun Quiovers, a fellow hiker (in ball cap at front) and his children, helped him carry it up the final steep ascent. Hamrick's son (in white t shirt) carries their Bible.
