We’re staying at Glacier Park Lodge. We will have an insanely epic experience.
i simply have to mesh two entirely different things:
- Deconstruct what we would normally do on our third consecutive week of high-mountain hiking (above 6,000′), on our final extended Glacier visit.
- Reconstruct what Glacier acclimated hikers (us) need to modify to enable what first-time, sea-level, Glacier visitors need so they do not overdo it. While simultaneously not leaving me feeling held back from what i would normally do if it was just Cheryl and me – on our farewell experience.
We could drive around, like a tour guide, and see all the sights.
A BFO, i do not want to end our deeply personal Glacier relationship like we started with Chapin in 2013 – driving around and stopping at the assorted scenic pullover lookouts.
Bottomline, i want to move (hike) like i (we) mean it. We are still physically capable.
If this is our last chance, i want to suck the marrow out of it.
So you can see the challenge, the opportunity.
Looking forward to being enlightened to a wonderful win-win solution.
Ps. i am open to, and hopeful for stumbling on a remarkable idea that takes this current situation to a glorious experience for all of us.
