Thanks notis! It was great to meet you, Frances and Hazel in the backcountry this summer. I hope you had a good trip and I'm looking forward to reading about it (and seeing your photos from your trip). Did you get over Feather and into Bear Lakes Basin?

Yeah I'm hoping to finally put our recent trip reports up! And yeah, we went into Royce Basin. The boulder hopping in that basin beat Hazel's paws up pretty good, but it was beautiful. So pristine. Thanks for the extended blog post--learned a bit from it and from your website too. Glad to see you got over Snow Tongue Pass safely. We were wondering how the remainder of your trip went!

Thanks Ken! It was good to meet you and I really enjoyed getting to relax around the HST meetup 'camp fire' together.
