Folks. We have not died. Our adventure lives perhaps more alive than ever before. After celebrating US tie, picking up some things from the post office in Tehachapi, we began to weigh our options for getting into Mammoth by June 30th.
A. Push the miles, time, and roll the dice in getting through the snow clogged High Sierras faster than anyone to date
B. Find a way up to Tahoe and adventure South.
We choose B. Working our magic, we ended up in Reno, NV for $32/night and enjoyed a Dirk Stevenson/Baron C. Rad adventure where we both came out even. Woke up the next morning and pulled strings to Tahoe where we found a way to Echo Lakes. Now both equipped with ice axes and snow gear we are working our way Lake to Lake back to Mammoth. We have a fishing pole and plan to do some damage. Already we have hiked around several waterfalls, summitted our surrounding peaks and "Polar Bear Plunged" into a half frozen lake. With snow pack between 2-15 ft, we will have a mixed bag adventure to Mammoth. But we will be there-And it shall be glorious.
