Day 1/2 - Journey to Nepal
I just traveled halfway around the world to visit and hike the Himalayas. It was a 17-day trek of epic proportion with my fabulous friends in #CSFBS.
The first part of the journey included a 14-hour flight to Doha, 8-hour layover, and a 5-hour flight to Kathmandu.
A few short months ago, I ran into an alpine bunny...
Did you know pika are related to rabbits? Now you do.
I always have an amazing trip when I see a bunny.
Whitney, I didn't get to summit this time. I'll be back!

He's been taking me hiking/backpacking since I was in a carrier on his back.
Now I drag him out... 😉

A brisk, clear, sunny day calls for a hike!
2025 Hike 5
10 miles, 2,400' elevation
Icy cold, frozen ground, warm friendship, sun, a stunning Tahoma (Mt Rainer), and the forest around me.
Sanity restored.

A brisk walk in the woods.
It was a frigid morning, with frosty trails.
And despite how beautiful it was, we saw barely anyone.
