    WOOT!
    Doing the happy dance for you right now! Merry Christmas! Enjoy that canyon trip!

    I've done that climb up out of there in the past, and I'm not sure I could do it again right now. It was an effort to get to the top of Vernal Fall in Yosemite a few weeks back.

    I can't imagine a better reward
    Bob,

    I was packed and ready to leave on an extended backpacking trip on the Ozark Highlands Trail when I got the bad news this fall. Surprisingly, at the end of chemotherapy, I'm completely deconditioned:) Got my equipment put back away, but it is on my mind almost every day. My reward when I get to your position, is to get back in shape and go....

    Congrats, and Merry Xmas

    WOW
    I am so, so thrilled for you! Yours has been a challenging road.

    I don't know if you remember me, but you were so kind to share information with me because of bone metastasis. You certainly give us a shot of hope!

    Send a prayer out for Andy from The Grand Canyon!

    My best,
    Robin

    Nice Deb.
    Vernal's straight uphill and beautiful. Must have been some ice on the JMT huh? Thanks for the dance.
