On July 8th, 2023, Pilot and I summited a mountain.
As all mountains go, it was a shitload of up. I've won plenty of uphill battles in my life but it had been a few years since I'd summitted any earthbeasts worth bragging about. Maybe longer. I didn't do it to brag, though. I did it to see what was at the top.
The trail claimed there would be mountain goats. So many, in fact, that a Mt. Goat Removal Project was scheduled for the end of the month. As such I schlepped my umpteen pound 600mm lens, along the with the three liters of water and snacks for me and the little scruff. A lot of up, a lot of schlepping. Alas, the most mountain goat I saw was in a few strands of white hair alongside the trail.
Her name is Mt. Elinore, and in spite of the three days worth of damage she did to my quads on the descent, I'm glad I spent the day with her.
