'Tude, you and wbtravis must know my daughter well - Sherpa is my middle name in the wilderness. And fun is the name of the game this trip, along with memorable moments and lots of field education. Our one or two trips west each year to national parks or other natural wonders are our favorite times together as a family. We plan to hike with Joe (quillansculpture) and his family, but no lottery notification as of yet so dates are by no means firm. We may be winging it at the InterAgency at 8:00 am sharp the day prior. If we're there mid-July, we'll certainly look you guys up at the LP campground (that's gonna be hot as hell in July!) and/or Portal and share a burger and a brew. Would love to meet you.
Here's a shot of she and I on the summit of Mt. Fremont (Mt. Rainier NP) about a year and a half ago. Her first summit she had to really work hard to obtain.
