Grinnell Glacier overlook trail
It was steeper and scarier (with the high winds) than it looks. You can see hikers over Dave’s shoulder.

Are you willing to take calculated risks?

Learning to take risks is the only way to discover new ways of doing things that used to be done in traditional ways.

All of this is done because you are driven to make our world a better place.
