I've had a few weekends of office work, with a computer looking at a wall. The Fire Prevention Officer shut the lights out on me one Sunday. I said loudly, "Nope!", and he popped his head in and said, "Sorry didn't realize you were in here. We're going to have to cut a window infront of your desk so people know you're in here".
Haven't done that yet. But I did get to listen to a good ETown, from Burlington, VT episode. The last song is Anais Mitchell and "Why We Build the Wall". I love this song!
Outdoor Adventures in VT and beyond... because I sometime move away from VT. But I've been known to return... if anything for the mountain biking. and of course, for family and friends.

She Walked in the Wilderness with a Shovel
Farewell to my co-worker, Sarah, and enjoy your new adventures.
It is always a bold and daring move to...well... move across the country after quitting your job... to do a Student Conservation Corps internship, and then go back to school. I was very fortunate to have such a wonderful person to hike with all summer who did just this.

I went to Utah and ...
all I took was pictures from the summit of Snowbird. And my cousin Chris took pictures of the tick he pulled off of my scalp. Awesome! Thanks for the help cuz!
Chris and his wife had a baby boy recently, so I went to visit. My Grandma and Aunt flew to Utah. So we went to the top of Snowbird on the tram.

6000' Vertical Work Weekend
So all the lakes in the Carson-Iceberg Wilderness you really have to work at to get to. There are less lakes than the Inyo, and people who want to go to them are either determined, or have pack animals! We wished we had a pack llama named ... Edgar... (I just picked his name just now) to haul our tools.
Either way, there's a lot of fishing in the CI, but a lot of areas in the Southern Region that are protected for two trout species. The Lahontan Cutthroat Trout and the Paiute Cutthroat Trout. Where we went hiking was in the border area where you couldn't fish, to where you can. Tamarack Lake outlet North is fishable.
Sarah and I added it up... but our work week of 4 days was a lot of up. But we hiked Mt. Rose (2300') on Friday. |
