About Me Expeditions and off trail secluded climbs are where you will find me. Or hopefully not find me as the case may be. You will never find me camping at a lake for instance with a nice campfire ring and a public whistler. I really don't like 2 or 4 ooted mice... Ok, most aren't 2 footed mice, but they all chew holes either in your pack or you.
