So today we went up Bunsen Peak. Some of us were at the
bottom thinking they can’t make it. Others were determined. Still others just
thought it looked fun. We started walking. A few hours later, we were ALL at
the top looking at the amazing vista before us. We could see the Great Tetons
to the South. They were over 2 hours away. We saw patches of trees and winding
rivers and ponds stretched before us. Electric Peak gleamed in the distance.
It was beautiful.
Notice how I said we started walking. We saw the mountains.
WE made it to the top. We all went in together, and a chord of three strands is
not easily broken. We had fifteen strands, so I suppose we were good.
Then we descended. I didn’t want to. I would’ve been
perfectly content staying up there for another 2 hours. But alas, bison chili
called, and it was tasty.
Tonight is our last as a group, and I have
enjoyed every second. Tomorrow I return home to my family, but I know that I
now have another family.
