Sierra High Route partner wanted
Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2014 1:53 pm
Hey all,
New member and I'm already asking for something.
I have too much vacation saved up now and my wife's new job doesn't let her have any until the end of the year so I figured I'd get this off of my bucket list seeing as how I'm California resident..again.
Looking to spend about 2 weeks on route, timing open, but maybe this isn't the year if the whole permit thing is going to be a problem. I could easily do this myself if my wife didn't freak out about the whole idea of it.
Me: Male, just about to turn 51, have a background of climbing, mountaineering (NZ, Alaska), backpacking (solo and not), grew up in Alaska so I have no problems being 'out there'. Also had a fair bit of wilderness first aid training but your best plan is to not rely on that. Also like landscape photography and skiing. Conversational without being overly chatty. PhD in geophysics but currently a computer monkey. Under no illusions that I know everything. Neither a type-A superathlete nor a couch potato. Not interested in listening to any paranoid conspiracy theories for two weeks.
You: ???
