As I said, nowadays I only make it halfway up the mountain, if I'm lucky. The last time I did that was two years ago, when I went up to scatter some of my mom's ashes. Uncle Baggins and I went partway up this summer, but not as high. It is a grand old mountain. By the way, a fun part of that hike was unexpectedly running into our own Ethel Duath on the trail!
