Title: The Third Annual Pinnacles Vacation
Post by: Uncle Stinky on March 19, 2011, 11:06:18 AM
The Third Annual Pinnacles Vacation

Our family took a shorter trip this year with the iffy weather but had three great days with cold mornings.  The highlight of the trip for the kids was a mole that hung around camp, damn those things can dig fast.  

Worked on a couple of new projects and hiked a bunch.  Very north end of High Peaks Trail a long grind to the top. A new Pakistani hat one of my student’s dad brought back for me.

Chess Game with my nephew, may be the valedictorian at his high school in a few years but afraid of heights.   -

Super trip report. Especially the photo of Sophie on Photographer's.

I recognize both of the areas where you threw the photos in for me to see. In fact, three of us were looking at the second of the two about five weekends ago, realizing that there was enough quality and length there for a route. Great minds think alike, yes?
