Taking these selfies at trailhead signs helps me remember what happened and when.

Let’s round it to 7.5 miles depending on which device you go with. Respectable considering i’ve only been here 14 hours.

It was a no brainer.

Scenic Point hike.

Capturing for posterity: About 2pm yesterday bumped into Keegan, the Lodge GM, in the lobby and have been reflecting on our conversation. This leads me to say this, my life is my message.
