"Landep News" The last lunar eclipse I saw was six months ago in San Diego. It was
early morning, the day we were to begin our walk through the desert on
the PCT. Flash and I were only hiking 110 miles but the rest were
beginning their Canada bid. The sight of the moon disappearing seemed
like an omen of something big. Now, the people who started on the same
day as we did are finishing, congratulations!
It turns out I had a
whole canyon to myself. This is one of my favorite places, so big and
wild and empty. I don't tell many people to go here, and the steep
uphill hike weeds them out anyway.
I
saw J coming down from Sky Lake as I was going up. She was solo too.
Which got me thinking. There's been a rash of books/accomplishments
about long distance hiking, written by women who are using the trail to
heal from something. Me? I just like to hike. I don't expect the trail
to do anything for me.

Sky Lake--the perfect place to watch an eclipse |

I couldn't resist day hiking up on the pass. Nobody in sight.
In
the past, I believe I've been too personal on this blog, which resulted
in people who don't know me making assumptions that really did not
mirror who I am. I've backed off from sharing too much, but I can say
with confidence that the wilderness, while a healing place, is not where
I go to fix myself. It's where I go to be disconnected, to hear
absolute quiet, to be away from people staring at screens, and to get a
good workout. Wilderness lets you take a good long look at yourself and
see what needs to be fixed--but it can't fix you.
I
crawled in my tent after gnawing on a bagel. The eclipse, over pale
mountains, was outstanding. I couldn't get good pictures with my point
and shoot, but that's not really the point. I don't need to post it
somewhere to remember.
