GNP Day 58, physically

Mountain Road in fog — Heading down from Logan Pass. It’s cold and cloudy. No sign of clearing.

i just read something (this morning) that caused a pause.

“Don’t share your private details online.”

Makes sense. For most people.

These blogs, as a reminder, are not socially sharable, are not promoted, and cannot be commented on. It’s a dad leaving a trail. A boring trail that shouldn’t interest anyone to stick around.

34-second video: Late September. Elk doing what they’ve done since time began.

9-second video: A quiet, introspective morning. No traffic.

Mountains — After 45 minutes with the Elk, we pass by our favorite stop.

Woman at trail head sign — The blue sky offers hope the clouds will pass.

Three weeks of family and friends joining us.

Incredible to share the wilderness with family and lifetime friends.

Conversely, the adjustment to other’s schedules and abilities.

This juxtaposition is new. It is also the opposite of freedom.

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.

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.
