I gotta tell you, Shin is one of my idols. I've read so much about him and his adventures and I was hoping to meet him someday. Well, today was the day. I saw him coming down the Baldy Bowl this morning and introduced myself. I recognized him from photos on these sites. He was hiking with a couple of friends and they were all as cordial and friendly as you could expect. He spent lots of time talking to my buddy and me and invited us on a hike. Heck, I'm only 193 Baldy Summits behind Shin!

Thank you so much Shin for making my day.
That's gotta be Baldy Summit #202 or so for you.



And yes, I did summit this time after my Baldy Bowl adventure of two weeks ago. Even have my leg bandaged.

Very cool indeed. Glad the leg's better man!

Hey Joe, what's that shirt DJ's wearing?

Any snow on Baldy yet? If not, probably won't be long. Starting to accumulate in the Sierra already.
