Mammoth


We went to Mammoth the scatter Nana's ashes. It was a family affair. We rented a condo with Cath (Dave's sister). We headed though Yosemite and over Tioga pass. We got there Friday evening and just hung out with everyone.

Most people who aren't from CA haven't even heard of Mammoth or they only know it as a ski resort. But, Mammoth is a beautiful area to hike and fish in during the summer. In fact David and I spent our honeymoon almost 20 years ago.

Saturday we headed up to Twin Lakes and rented boats. We had a great time rowing around and the waterfall was lovely. After we hiked up to the old mines below Hart Lake. Most of us made it all the way to the top!



Finally, at 3:30 we all met at Horseshoe Lake to walk back to the place where Pop had his pack station. Coralie (Nana) spent her summers up here as a child with no running water other than a stream near by. It was the perfect place to put her to rest.


Then back for a family picture.
