We don't stop hiking because we grow old, we grow old because we stop hiking. -- Finis Mitchell

Today the adventure begins


Today is the day.

Our backpacks are packed with our kit.

Our shoes are tied tight.

Our hats are on.

We're ready to hit the Wonderland Trail.

It's time to test how our training has paid off. We first started our training back in March by summitting Tiger Mountain once or twice a week. We then moved to Poo Poo Point for a month and soon onto Mount Si twice. Next followed Mailbox Peak and hiking around Sunrise.

Now our real adventure begins. We are heading up to Mowich Lake to camp tonight, and then hit the trail tomorrow. Tune back in each day, as the site will be updating to show you where we are and what our route for the day looks like.

It's your way to keep track of the Northern Ranger's greatest adventure of 2009!

And from one of my favorite books and movies of all time, "Into the Wild."
