Headed to Bishop


Photographer Mark Crosse and I are driving to Bishop, then North Lake today. We'll camp at North Lake and begin hiking in the morning.

Looking forward to it. Weather seems fine. The forecast is 102 in the San Joaquin Valley, meaning it will probably be in the 70s above 10,000 feet. Very nice.

The satellite phones work. We tried them out in the parking lot yesterday. Now we need to figure out if they'll work up there.

Keep your eye on http://www.fresnobee.com/lostflights/. I will try to blog on the satellite phone from the glacier.

The photo above was taken two years ago at Evolution Valley, which is west of Mendel Glacier.
