JTN, B. RUSIN, M. ROBERTS, LAST LAKE FORK SUMMIT, 2009

 File — Box: 182, Folder: 46

Scope and Contents

37 color photos in this album of my final two trips to the summit of Lake Fork Peak, on September 27, 2009, with Bill Rusin; and on October 3, 2009, with Maggie Roberts. Album includes my lengthy written journals of each trip, leaving no detail out. Weather was bland, totally sunny, not very interesting. Photos with Bill Rusin include a 5-picture panorama covering the Wheeler Peak alpine bowl in a semi circle from Catherine Overlook to Lake Fork Peak. I was 69. I've made it up to Little Lake Fork Lake and the Marsh since them, but now, at 73 (in 2014), I'm lucky to make it up to Williams Lake. Time's wingèd chariot is drawing near.
