GNP Day 56, physically

Mountains at Dawn — 7:30 AM, from our back deck.

Had our eyes on Siyeh Pass trail today. The top photo shows the unforecasted rain. The second photo shows a midday tease.

Other than midday, it rained all day.

We will try for Siyeh Pass trail tomorrow.

GNP Day 55, physically

Handwritten notes — In an unusual move, i’m sharing GoDaddy followup notes. The original two-hour call on September 25 (four days ago) notes are not shared on purpose.

We know our home will take a direct hit.

We lived through three major direct-hit hurricanes in 2004 – in four weeks time, remember?

Charlie. Francis. Jean.

Remember?

Only those who lived through it can remember it like it was yesterday.

In 40 years, we’ve been home for every hurricane. To not be there for Ian is anxiety-producing.

Why?

The catch this time is we won’t be able to immediately identify any interior breaches from wind or rain.

An interior breach of any kind for any time duration can make a mountain out of a molehill.

GNP Day 54, physically

Mountains and a lake — Lake McDonald shrouded in a cloud blanket.

Mountain lake — Hidden Lake showing off for human delight.

Four people in the mountains — Barb’s first visit. Chuck’s second. Cheryl and i do not keep track of our Hidden Lake Overlook visits.

First, today’s weather is a rare forecast for exceptionally warm, clear, and calm.

Second, couldn’t have scripted a better scenario. Well, could have but odds say it will never happen. But it’s happening.

Hiking goal: Something Barb is capable of. Then balancing additional hours to get Chuck (and me) some mileage and elevation gain/loss.

GNP Day 53, physically

3-second video: Good karma for our impending hike.

Four people by a mountain hotel — Expect to be wowed when you step outside. Right?

21-second video: Swiftcurrent and Many Glacier Valleys.

Mountain lake and hotel — Mt Wilbur on Swiftcurrent Lake.

Mountain hotel — Finally, a photo that starts to capture what the naked eye sees.

33-second video: A video doing Grinnell Lake justice. Kinda.

The goal: A level hike. Not too far. One everyone can do.

Grinnell Lake hike worked in the past. Banking on it to work today.

Mountain at sunrise — Don’t recall seeing the sunrise move left to right on Clements. Normally it’s top to bottom.

Interestingly, Oberlin’s summit did not get lit first.

Explained to Chuck that we will encounter almost no one. This is remarkable because Logan Pass is a zoo from the time the lot fills up until late afternoon.

Ain’t nobody got time for a zoo.
