Never do this

mountain top
Mt Siyeh summit from Cataract Mountain. Looks like one continuous mountain but there’s a massive void (cliffs and valley) between the two.

  • Seven hours on the trail.
  • Scouting a foot-soaking seat.
  • Ice-cold glacier-melt. Five seconds was the longest i could submerge feet.
  • Technology.
  • Great feature to keep working while others play.
  • Only 264 photos and videos today…about average.
  • The Motel wifi can’t handle the downloads. i park rental car at RV Park front office, wifi is better there – then walk 1/4 mile back to Motel and back again several hours later to retrieve car/phone.

Never get bored with the basics.

October 24, 2010. Remember this day? Four consecutive dad wins. Totally beginners luck.
Dear Son…

Whatever you resolve to do, change, or become, learn to over-focus on the same things you used to under-focus on or ignore.

Addiction is contagious

Anything that medicates, entertains, and distracts from pain will be worth getting used to. Who wants pain, no one.

You saved my life

Mt Reynolds barely visible from the Western State’s wildfires.
Expect the unexpected.

Dear Son, thank you for saving my life.

What’s your daily routine?

Mid-September, still not red.
  • West Glacier entrance and the Alberta, Canada visitors center.
  • My white rental car and end-room shangri-la.
Closing out a rest day driven by rental car contract re-signing, and by smoke and haze.

Tell me about your home life.
