Books, Films and Photos. Ed had thought the answer might be a small hospital, but the answer Urkien gave was, 'We would like a school for our children.'.

Future Trekking and Climbing Trips
http://www.johnbriggs.com/adventures/future-trips
Austin Healey 100 Le Mans. MGA Mark II Deluxe. My adventure plans for 2015 begin with hikes of the Skyline-to-the-Sea Trail, the Lost Coast andHalf Dome with Katie, Jason and Lynda. Ideally those trips would be good warm ups for a backpacking trip on the John Muir Trail. In 2016, I'd like to complete my climbs of the Cascade volcanoes by going on a roadie and climbing Mt Adams and Mt Baker in the spring. I'd also like to hike the Grand Canyon End-to-End someday. Explore Tibet and the north side of Everest.
