Unlisted 2022 trip

notes on a napkin
August 25, 2019, with Jody Maberry at Rising Sun Motor Inn. Each quote is expanded in the next blog.

Unlisted 2022 trip is the annual meetup with Jody Maberry.

We have met and hiked (and worked) together for the past four years. Jody and i are fans of streaks. So we’d hate for our GNP streak to end.

It almost ended last year, but in the 11th hour, Jody was able to fly out for the last few days of the 2021 season.

Weeping Wall

Weeping Wall is a memorable location.

To be in this place, with no cars, for the entire day, is remarkable.

Unrushed.

A definite “how bad do you want to do this” endeavor.

All the creeks and waterfalls are on full blast.

Stunningly quiet without vehicular motor noise.

Occasionally noisy with joyous and exuberant yelling.

Career Glacier fever

Career Glacier fever.

Perhaps a short and pithy book about my 50-year (technically 49) old friendship with GNP.

i love the burden

i love the burden of a crazy idea.

It’s like being in the wilderness.

On a trail you’ve never taken.

In a place you’ve never been.

You are searching for solitude, self, and adventure.

Of course it’s risky.

Of course you may lay your eyes on something few, if any, have ever seen.

And for some deeply unexplainable reason (maybe it’s primal DNA), you cannot stop yourself from exploring the edges.
