Full Trip Report
On Saturday, Kathleen, Karen, and I joined Beth for a hike up Navaho Peak to celebrate her annual “39th birthday.” The Teanaway supplied golden larches and sunny weather, while Karen supplied cupcakes and party favors. Beth was radiant all day long and, quite honestly, didn’t look a day over 29!
