If you follow this blog, you know that I have been reading books on hiking... and I've seen several movies about the same subject, as well.
So, imagine my delight when I discovered my grandson was going climbing/hiking in the Grand Tetons Mt. in Wyoming.
Now, the climbing part... that sounds too scary... and once you climb.. you gotta come down!
But, what an experience for him. Tighe is 15 and this will be something he will remember his entire life. If he never hikes again, so be it... but to have done it just once. WOW
I'm so impressed! That's a great accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteHiking in the Grand Tetons is quite an undertaking. Your grandson will definitely remember the experience. We've been there, in Wyoming, and were awed by those peaks. Granny M
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to him for setting that goal and climbing! You are so right, he will remember this forever. He can tell his children some day "when I was your age I climbed the Tetons". This is waaaaay more impressive than a teen reaching a certain level on a play station. This makes me very hopeful for our young people.
ReplyDeleteQuite an accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing accomplishment, indeed!!!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful and what an exciting adventure for him!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling he's going to keep climbing...
