Brooks Range Alaska -Arctic Village to Anaktuvuk Pass - 2008 : ~340 km - 16 days of solitary hiking in the trailess wilderness in Alaska's Brooks Range. An exhausting trip involving difficult hiking over tussocks, many passes, hordes of mosquitoes, crossing many rivers, constant daylight, usually surrounded by arctic flowers. A beautiful and deserted landscape, in terms of large mammals I only came across one grizzly bear, one moose, and fleeting glimpse of wolves. The caribou which usually fill the valleys were on the calving grounds on coast (the place where some people want to drill for oil).

Hike at Mount Falcon Park - Denver June 19, 2008 : This was a hike I took with Denver Adventures while I was at a conference in Denver.  Check them out at: http://www.denveradventures.com/2.html  Our hiking guide was Mike who did an outstanding job of leading our hike.  If you are going to be in the Denver area check it out for a great adventure in the Rocky Mountains.  This was a half day hike in the afternoon and was fantastic!  On the way back we stopped at the Red Rock outdoor theather which was below where we hiked.

3rd Annual Lost Coast Backpack 5/08 : 15 of us from NorCal Hiking split up and hiked opposite along the Lost Coast, swapping car keys the second night. 25 miles, 4 days, lots of beach hiking. A day of rain, a day of wind, a day of fog and a day of sun. Always a pleasure to hike this incredible trail.

Ventana Wilderness Backpack 4/08' : Steve, Pavla, Barbara and I from NorthCAhiking headed into Pine Valley for an overnighter. We visited Jack and saw an incredibly beautiful waterfall after a difficult scramble. Jack is full of stories, if you're ever in the area stop by and chat with him (and bring some bacon and eggs)  ;) we also saw a ton of wildflowers, a 4 foot long Garter snake, a bunny, deer and a cool lizard. We ate at Phils Fish House in Moss Landing on the way home, funky but oh so good!

Day 3 dayhike down to the Colorado through Clear Creek Canyon 10 miles. Day 4 dayhike up Clear Creek Canyon to Cheyava Falls 10 miles. Day 5 back to Bright Angel Camp and a stew dinner at Phantom Ranch, 9 miles. Day 6, hike out on the Bright Angel trail, 10 miles, 5,000 foot elevation gain 4 hours 11 minutes. Phew, I'm tired just thinking about it ;). Great trip, even the 30 hours in the car were managable. Topped it all off with a night in Vegas with good food and lots of lights. These pictures are from Dave's camera and mine. I only had 1 gig with me so there's less than usual. Bex's photos at www.calipidder.com

High Sierra Trail Backpack 8/04 : Six of us, Dave, Hans, Bob, Mike, Brian and I hiked the High Sierra Trail, around 80 miles in 8 days. Heck of a hike, highly recommended, the only downfall is the shuttling of cars between trailheads, it's a 6 hour drive each way.
