MONTANA MOUNTAIN RIDGE NEAR BIG THING MINE, Carcross, YTLast week, and for nearly the last 15 years, whenever we hike I am designated SHERPA - - the one who trudges along with the backpack, takes pictures and carries energy bars or Snickers as the GUIDE hustles along ahead on the trail.
Here, with three trusty companions checking out three different directions, the GUIDE takes a moment to try and figure out if we've gone far enough up the trail and are cold and soaked enough to turn back. Sorry, but the command is "onward and upward."
As noted in an earlier Blog, I always think about how to get back while the GUIDE is thinking that if we hike high enough we may get above the clouds and who knows what might be there.
Anyway, I liked the picture and the patience of our friends' 'trusty friends' (left to right) Fibber McGee, LocoBones and Dingo.
