Noteworthy updates:
1) I have my fishing license
2) I know how to catch and gut fish
3) I've been to Yosemite valley and I've seen Half Dome
4) I have a really bad farmers tan and I've added three new scars to my huge muscular legs
5) I finally beat my mom at a round of mini golf
6) I'm starting my own business www.trekkingforlove.com; It's an adventure touring company for singles. Stand by for updates. Willa, my sister, if willing is going to provide the graphic design work
7) I'm taking my GRE's in about a month
8) Meet an awesome guy; unfortunately he doesn't live in Mammoth; however I feel good about this one :) Enough to even mention that I'm smitten. I swear if he reads this I might die. Also stand by for updates, if there are even any to update. (I might be going to San Diego to visit him)
9) Things I say about 25 thousands times a day: Rainbow falls is 2.5 miles from the trailhead at Devils Postpile. If you want to make your hike shorter take the shuttle bus to stop number 9 and walk 1.3 miles to the falls one way.
For a less traveled hike go to Minaret falls; 2.7 miles round trip.
No, you can't have your dog off leash.
No you can't bring your bicycle on the trail.
No, I'm not a ranger in training.
I work for SCA and I am essentially a ranger in the sense I do all the same work, I just don't get paid as much and I have a less cool uniform.
Bathrooms are too the left of the ranger station.
No, a bottle of water is not enough for a 7 mile hike you idiot.
I can't tell you about the geophysical composition about basalt because I don't know what that even means.
It's called Devils Postpile because of basque sheephearders. "Devils Woodpile"
I have no idea what I am going to do in winter curious junior rangers. Don't question me, just go with "I'm going back to New York for a while until I figure out the next move."
It's a black bear, yea, I know it's brown in color. But I swear it's a black bear, why well because it's the same species as the bears back east. Yes, I know it's brown, but it's a black bear. No, it's not a grizzly, no it's not a brown bear, it's a black bear. Why do we have the skin, well because of people like you. You are curious about petting it right and learning about it? Well there you go. Why does it have a gunshot wound, well it was a problem bear. Did I kill it, no I didn't kill it.
My all time favorite: "Where are those big rocks," Sir they are about a half a mile along the trail and they are actually basalt lava, "Right, so the rocks are this way?"
