Here are a couple of photos sent by phone - the mountain view photo sent yesterday as a very small file, and a better quality pic sent this AM at six-ish - Dad K looks a bit stunned but Rob looks like he's at home! Dave sends text messages from high spots, and I know they got to Hightop Hut, 15 miles from the Loft starting place, yesterday - then further on to camp somewhere near the Rte 33 intersection. Last night's last report: cookies and pepperoni bread were all gone, lightening the load! Hope Dave slept at least a bit last night!

Hey guys!
Nice photos! Great job, Mom K ... did the "technical help" help? : )
Boys are off in the van for first summer game. I'm back at the ranch making brownies and minding the animals (dog + 7 woodchucks under the shed).
Rob, you look tanned & in your element. Have fun! (Stay tuned for baseball update.)
Love, AJ
What a great hike! Perfect weather. Relatively flat terrain. The hitch hiking wasn't bad, though not as easy as some would lead you to believe. I think I walked/paced several miles just waiting for a ride. Being in the back of a pick-up was a first for me.
After a short hike, I met some of the regulars. What a great group to hang out with! Though sideshow's video of him holding the rattler was unexpected. And Big Shanty does have a knack for finding snakes. (don't sit near him if you get the chance)
Saw a couple of bears up close. And those SNP deer are more like pats than wild animals.
Food was the favorite topic. Calories, the more the better. I saw Rob stop for lunch then join me minutes later at the lodge for another full meal. I think he left the table hungry...
I look forward to joining Rob again when he's closer.
And, did I mention sore feet ... I should say very sore feet, yeah and my feet were sore.
