“We’re not here for a long time, we’re here for a good time” my father would joke, in the days before he passed, just a few years ago. He was known for having a good time. After his passing I decided to up my game. I committed myself to getting out on at least one big trip a year, on the longest days of the year, to test myself.
A celebration of life and light with some type 2 fun mixed in. In 2019, I convinced two close friends, Freebird and Grapestomper, to traverse the 20+ mile Adirondack High Peaks Great Range Trail on the summer solstice. Known as one of the hardest day hikes in America, it certainly lived up to its reputation.
