Will be mailing in my application today for party of 3 with primary and back-up dayhike dates alternating between the last week of July and the week before that. Primary date is the last Thursday of July. The other two people are my church music director and his college-age son. They have never been, so I will be leading, if this all works out. Lots of hoops to jump through yet to make it happen.

If future generations are to remember us with gratitude rather than contempt, we must leave them more than the miracle of technology. We must leave them a glimpse of the world as it was in the beginning, not just after we got through with it.
- Lyndon Johnson, on signing the Wilderness Act into law (1964)
