Life’s little challenges

It has been quite awhile since I posted here. A lot has happened. I am catching up on some due taxes and it is really stressing me out. Not that I can’t pay but that it seems like forces move against us to challenge us when we set a goal. This is just me whining like a baby and I will get over it.
I received my new set of Mountaineering boots, they are really badass.

Here is a picture of them on my feet.

Just looking at the gear has made my head swim a little. I know in the short run, some of the gear I can rent. Much of the gear I want to be my own. I did score me some nice base layers on sale the other day. I head out to SLC next week. There won’t be any climbing going on though. Maybe I can get in a little skiing and even kike up to some peaks above Brighton. It has been a long time since I climbed the shoots above Millicent Lift. I thought that my plans to hike Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea were off because my friend was going to cancel on me. He is back on so it’s all cool. I will have not only a running partner but a climbing partner. We might start off at the 10K foot level though instead of the 8K level for Mauna Loa. Its about 15 miles shorter and his time is tight. No big deal though. It all works out.
