Last night Stuey and I went on a hiking camping trip up Sharatin with the cousins. The claimed objective was to climb to the top and tick off another mountain on the Adjust your Altitude Challenge. But only Stuey and I had stickers - so really it was all about camping with the boys.
We climbed up and camped next to a lake and even went swimming after dinner. On arrival it was looking a little ugly and I was worried we'd be getting in some downtime in tents in the rain. But the sun came out and after dinner we went for a quick walk and checked out the super scary and sheer cliffs near camp. Like 300 foot vertical drops.
We also found where a stream had cut a tunnel under a snowfield and you could duck walk through under the snow. A snow cave tunnel! All and all we had a very good time and I took so many pictures that I will have to do a couple of posts at least - so stay tuned.
