2004 Activities
Looking back through my 2004 log on the last day of the year…
- Many hikes at Almaden Quicksilver Park.
- Skiing – telemark and cross-country – as late as May.
- Discovered great hiking at Mission Peak, Castle Rock, and Calero.
- Backpacking – the annual Talusdancers trip that went from South Lake to Onion Valley this year; the climb to Lamarck Col; the mid-October end-of-season trip to the Cathedral Peak/Lakes area.
- Photograpy – High Sierra pack trips, early season in the high country, fall colors in the eastern Sierra and late November in Yosemite Valley, among others.
- The Winter Grand Traverse hike
- Great trips and great friends.
