Day 8 CCL, spirit

two hikers on a mountain
Evan is a retail clerk in West Glacier. Cheryl struck up a conversation (like we both do) while we experienced Glacier.
handwritten notes on a notebook page
Evan wanted to summit a Glacier peak. He had no chance, until Cheryl discovered his wish and knew i was itching to get back up on Oberlin. Shortly after summiting, Evan shared his notebook. He invites people from his travel/summer/work to sign his notebook. Some wrote one line, some a few sentences. The high-achiever in me logged a full page.

In 28 Oberlin summits, have never seen Swiftcurrent Lookout in this configuration.

Turning 90-degrees to the left to capture Clements. Reynolds, top left, made a three second tease-appearance.
38-second video: Time-lapse on our way to Oberlin’s summit.
29-second video: This was Evan’s idea. Evan is a retail clerk at Highland general store, which shares the same space as our ‘go-to’ restaurant in West Glacier.

Service and sharing the ‘good news’ has unlimited possibilities.

Simply hearing a person’s greatest current wish and being able to easily surprise and delight is just one of the unlimited ways.

List of hiking trails
For posterity.

More posterity.

The best time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining.

Sounds silly.

The best time to plan the best hikes is long before you arrive at the trailhead.

Habits and rituals drive our emotional results.

Habits and rituals drive the level of peace i have in my soul, the level of joy in my spirit, and the level of love in my heart.

Day 5 CCL, spirit

Gotta say, All Trails App is misleading me (and EVERYONE) with their summit elevations. How do i know? i’ve been summiting these peaks and using my iPhone Compass app to verify my attitude. Their altitude declarations are a disservice to everyone.

If you are advising people who trust you, deliver on your promise to be accurate.

If you really think about, not being accurate is lying. Simple as that.

Truth does not have a percentage of correctness.

Anything other than 100% accuracy is a lie.

Day 4 CCL, spirit

No brainer to take Going-to-the-Sun Road back from dinner at ‘Two Sisters’.
2-second video: We stopped, again, on the way ‘home’.

Learn to be intentional where you used to be unintentional.
