Mount Carleton Hike

[solidshadow]

Last night Duff and I were talking about getting outside and a plan has formed. Next weekend (Sunday, May 16th) we plan to take a trip out to Mount Carleton and walk up the mountain. Duff estimates that the whole trip will take 12 hours. That’s a 4 hour drive, 2 hours up the trail, 2 hours back and a 4 hour drive home. This might be a slight over

Ah, I thought you meant a short hike through Odell or something. Mt Carleton's way more intensive. I've been up it before, in the 80s. I remember being interested by the shed the wind had blown off the top of it. Completely flattened. The trip itself though has no good memories at all for me. Lots of work and sweating for nothing of interest to me. Thanks for the invite, though. I know you'll love it. Lots of exertion and nature and such. Probably have more amenities for people now, 25 years later. All I remember is the rain, the cold drive home, and the complete lack of food. I imagine there's a Tim's at the parking lot now.

Anyway, my horrible trip aside, I'm sure you guys will have a lot of fun. I'll be at home playing WoW and sleeping. :)

Heh. Yeah I'll probably enjoy it. It's been a while though. I won't be going if it's raining. No fun in that the first time out.

Sorry for the double post. Something about the iPhone and LJ don't mesh properly, it seems. Or maybe just slowly.
