I’m backpacking

I’m backpacking


I’ll be in the High Sierras backpacking Wednesday-Sunday at Kings Canyon-Sequoia National Park. The trailhead is at 9,000 feet and we’ll do a pass at 11,000,then go up to a plateau at 11,500 where there’s lots of lakes.


The Perseid meteor shower will peak Wednesday night, and is expected to be spectacular this year, and we’ll be far from city lights tonight and up high with no smog.


However, there will be no cell phones, Internet, or blogging. Gasp, can I survive 4 days off the grid?


Um, yes, I can. Quite happily too.


I can hardly wait to see what new madness the world has gotten itself into upon my return to civilization.
