Be A Flower Leave a comment
Flatspine Stickseed — Image by kenne
Be a flower.
Be a seed.
Let your growth
Arouse curiosity.
Let it fascinate
And amaze.
Let it inspire the artist
And the scientist.
Let it shock the doubters.
Let it grant hope
To the hopeless.
Let it begin in silence,
And end with a loud bang.
Don’t be an open book –
Be mysterious.
Be extraordinary,
Be undefinable,
Be a ball of fiery fire,
And above all,
Grow in silence,
And let your success
Do the talking.

King Canyon Trail To Wasson Peak, Revisited 1 comment
A couple of weeks ago some of us did our annual King Canyon trail hike to observe the wildflowers, which in the past was part of our hike on up to Wasson Peak. However, this year the plan was not to go all the way to the Peak. I hate to admit it, but time is beginning to catch up with us. So, the best I can do is to revisit a posting from six years ago. My days of cheating time might be running out.

Wildflower Slideshow by kenne
Panorama of Wasson Peak Near The Top
SCVN guided hike to Wasson Peak via Kings Canyon trail, which is about a seven mile (roundtrip) hike and elevation gain of 1,900 ft.
Some of our hikers made only the Kings Canyon trail to the first saddle since we were experiencing unusually warm record-setting temperatures (the mid-90’s).

are beginning to find out going to the mountains is going home;
that wilderness is a necessity…”
