Intro
My 74-year-old parents were visiting from British Columbia, Canada. My dad was dealing with a bad back and unfortunately could not hike, but my mom was rearing to go. I took her on a hike to Andrews Tarn, supplying her with a spare ice axe and pair of crampons. I poined out the climbs I had done on the nearby Sharkstooth and Zowie Tower. I was impressed with her stamina too, especially at 11,000 feet, about 11,000 feet higher than the sea level they live at in British Columbia. What a great day with my mom! The next day my dad and I had a great day building a bike enclosure and a bench on my patio.
