Sand to Snow ‘25 Celebrating My 80th Birthday April 22, 2025
“Give me the scorn of the stars and a peak defiant;
Wail of the pines and a wind with the shout of a giant;
Night and a trail unknown and a heart reliant.”
– Robert Service
Embark on an epic adventure of Spring 2025! My birthday journey began in the scorching depths of Death Valley, followed by a four-day backpacking adventure through the mesmerizing Marble Slot Canyon. Afterward, I recovered in tranquil secret Hot Springs, then encountered a high Sierra blizzard.. Throughout this incredible journey, I witnessed nature’s awe-inspiring transformations, from blistering heat to freezing cold, all while dancing with the incredible landscapes of the Great Basin desert and Eastern Sierra Mountains. This is not just a trip; it’s a festival of wonders that left me in a living dream. So, buckle up and join me on this unforgettable exploration of the wonders of the desert and mountains. Thank you for all your good wishes, be well, have joys and thrive like crazy.
