I'm here!

Campers:
More than a few of you have written wondering if I've been abducted by aliens. I'm happy to report I have no memory of that being the case. It's kind of a dog-ate-the-homework excuse, but I've been in a long and depressing struggle with federal worker's comp and have not worked backcountry in a year. Sigh.... . I need a new hip. No excuse for not checking in occasionally, but there you have it... .
But, kind of a new thing: I'll be working as a ranger at Channel Islands NP (Ventura, CA) at Santa Rosa Island. Very new and different and looks like a cool place. I'll send updates and will try to weigh in here more often.
Everyone have a safe and terrific hiking season! I was there in the '76 & '77 drought years and the high country is still every bit as outstanding!
