Three day hike in the Swiss Alps with my eldest son, crossing a pass into Italy for lunch on the second day (well, why wouldn't you?). Great weather, firm snow, 10,000' peaks all around.
Hardly anybody around as it is still officially pre-season and the huts aren't staffed. So we made a fire, boiled spring water and went to bed early to get warm. Fantastic trip, starting from a small village in Switzerland and hiking all day up to a lonesome hut, before crossing the pass on the second day, before coming back again, climbing a peak in the morning to catch the sunrise.









Excellent!

ha, yeah it was a bit similar to that, but we had a more favourable weather window and were a bit later in the year. Our hut was a massive stone building with 53 bunks (all empty apart from 3 Belgians who turned up) and enough wood to make a decent fire and boil up 20 litres of spring water for cooking/drinking. I thought of buying crampons before we left but didn't in the end and the snow was soft enough without too many patches of ice so we didn't need them.

Typical summer morning on the southern California coast... "Low clouds and fog".
It was an amazing almost 40 degrees colder than home.
I soaked it in.

My son organized a three day camping/kayak/ hiking trip to Santa Cruz Island for a few friends... and my granddaughter too..
We just got back yesterday.
We all had a great time doing all we could cram into those three days and two nights.

Not part of the hikes... we did a lot of kayaking...


We explored quite a few of the many caves on the island.
This one was a challenge. You had to wait to time the swells so it would drop enough to clear a slot through...




Wow! fellow yakker here who is green with envy!!!

ok, bit of a thread jack here as journals no longer exist. 

back story:  after six months of what felt like 7-day working weeks and shifting a shit ton of work (for which I am truly grateful) I really needed to get out for a bit. 

So I organised huts for a hike in the dolomites with my eldest son (21 yrs old now), who is halfway through law school. Just the ticket.
That hut perched in the saddle is a three storey job. Big country.
Awesome for sure.
