Little Si, September 21, 2003

I went with Ren and Kyle, two great small fellas for their first mountain climb. We took the scramble route up the peak, complete with some 3rd, 4th and even 5th class climbing to the summit. It was the classy, sassy way! They were excellent fun on the trail, and cheerful climbers as well. On the summit I drank all of Kyle's water, so he had to borrow some from Ren. I had been irresponsible and forgotten water of my own! On the way down, we consumed as much sugar as possible, eating all the candy in their backpacks. A great day out!
