NM11046 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I have been very fortunate - with no kid's college educations to save for I make it a priority to explore. It's the best way to open yourself up to different people, cultures and opinions. A few: Australia, Scotland, Namibia. 3 Quote Link to comment

NM11046 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Hanging Lake, Colorado Hiked to it in April when the top half of the trail was still covered in ice even though it was 55 degrees. Nearly died on several occasions. Still get mild goosebumps when I think about it. At one point I stepped slightly off trail to avoid sliding off the mountain and my leg went down into the snow all the way up to my upper thigh (I feel slightly sick right now just writing about it) and I almost couldn't get out and my boot almost came off. This thread is going to make me jealous. There are so many foreign countries I want to travel to. Planning to start in the next few years. Pull the trigger Moraine! I figure I can do all the local stuff when I'm old ... get the long flights out of the way while you're young. The university alumni group actually does some pretty cool trips if you like to go in groups. Quote Link to comment
