When this is the trail.

Turn sideways to the left so the green bar is horizontal.... my phone won't.

It's a bit tight going up through there...

And I'm NOT the smallest fellow in the world.

Most people have to take their packs off to fit.....

 

The lower pic is tough to imagine right.

The angle the land is right around 70 degrees or so.

Steep !!!!!

Fun climb!

Well the fridge must be a long way because at 40 you can do the fridge marathon.:)

Right there with ya.

I can't hike above about 85 degrees or so... And prefer much much cooler.

That was a good day with a lot of climbing over three different mountains in a big loop. Not by a long shot the longest one we've done. This past hike was about 7 Trail miles and about three dirt road miles to get back to the car.

 

We haven't been doing as much hiking this year because we've been so busy around the acreage.

We've done a good many hikes in the 11 to 13 mile range and two different days on different mountain ranges that were 16 miles a piece.

Lots of work. Lots of energy. Lots of fun. We really enjoy it.

Make the most of it while you can, Eric. I used to do quite a bit of walking and cycling. But these days my legs are not what they were. :(

My honey and I went out west to North Dakota to visit a friend of hers two years ago August. We had a great time and I wish I could have spent months out there not days.

I've read a good many books about the Western life and culture of the ranching days. It was absolutely fascinating for me to be able to see the types of things that Louis L'Amour had been mentioning along the way...
