For one guest, this is just the start of an extraordinary finish. We won’t go into too many details for privacy reasons, but this trip is just one small part of a larger endeavor that saw its share of joy, accomplishment, setback, and sadness. Though the latter for reasons we cannot yet say at this time. With this guest we have one more hike coming up and maybe after that hike more will be revealed. In the meantime, we will tell you that happy tears were shed summiting numbers 44-46 of our guest’s 48. Two more to go. This hike was an out and back to and from of the Bonds (Bondcliff, Mt Bond, and West Bond) via Lincoln Woods and was lead by Redline Guide Arlette Laan. Check out these photos of this classic hike.
Teamwork, alongside our guest, a good friend lent her moral support.
Taking on the “Stairway to Heaven,” the final hurdle to Bondcliff.
The Bondcliff summit… YES!
The classic Bondcliff photo.
Leaving Bondcliff behind, the team makes their way toward Mt Bond.
The Mt Bond summit. Oh the job and relief.
And finally, friends on the West Bond summit.
Taking a moment to reflect before returning the way they came.
Great job, Arlette. And to our guest and her friend, well done.
