The dance was written in summer of 1994 after a weeklong stay at Tuolumne (TWALL' uh mee) Lodge in Yosemite National Park with a group of Scottish Country Dancers. On one of our daily hikes on the twisting and turning trails, Linda Boucher playfully suggested we should write a dance with the tournee figure in it. Hence this dance.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
