How To Climb To The Top of the World- dedicated to Megan

First you find a HUGE rock like this one......

















Then you add some friends.....
don't forget yourself.....







by the way a hollowed out stump makes a great chair.....








load up with snacks and water and start walkin.....
up....up...and.....away!
This hike is
great because it's only a short walk up to the action...



unlike Mt. McLoughlin where you have to hike 5 miles to get to the part you really came for....






AAAAAAAAACCCCCCHHHHH!!!!!!! I have to climb up THAT?!!!!


It's always good to have a helping hand from a friend....






















ok now it's my turn....


whew!....made it over that hump....




almost there........
We made it! Yeah!...

activities at the top....
signing our note to posterity.....

Checking out the view..............WOW!
Mt. McLoughlin

Mt. Ashland...

Mt. Shasta......


relaxing.....

taking pictures.....
thinking about....
how am I going to get down?

Here goes nothin!........


down the slide....



This is FUN!

....yikes......



stretch..................................



down...........down...........and down..................



....come on.....I''ll catch you!......


...yikes..............don't land on my head!........
