This site is devoted to some of the hiking and peakbagging trips that I've taken over the last 45 years or so.
The list below is incomplete. Eventually, each trip will have links to a brief trip report, maps, and images. I'll try to add the most current ones as they occur. The older trips will likely take considerable time to join this list since there are so many old records, journals, and photographs to sort through... and my wife won't be too happy if I spend too much time on this project rather than helping around the house :).
