Mountain leadership

Going-to-the-Sun Mountain, right. Mahtapi Peak, center-left. Piegan is the huge left-side mountain.

If you hike with me in Glacier, you can expect me to:

  • Be at our trailhead by 6AM (to ensure parking)
  • Plan easiest hikes early in week
  • Plan longer hikes later in week
  • Have fun
  • Be flexible
  • Stop often to gaze and wonder
  • Use sound leadership judgement
  • Carry more water than you think you’ll need
  • Plan on worst case
  • Carry a Garmin satellite GPS device for emergencies
  • Carry a basic 1st aid kit
  • Carry a headlamp (you should too)
  • Stop often to take photos/vids (you should too)
  • Carry a pocket rain poncho (you should too)
  • Carry a pocket emergency blanket (you should too)
  • Carry bear spray (you won’t need to if you’re with me, otherwise, never go on a trail without bear spray)
  • Carry a power brick (you should too)
  • Carry backup eye-glasses (you should too)
  • Carry gloves, neckerchief, beanie (for unexpected windchill)

Upper right: the dam and lake from last blog. Searched Google for Southwest USA dams. Can’t find a match.

C S Coach.

Not C S Lewis.

C S Coach.

Can’t share why publicly.

Why?

Probably go to hell for the sarcasm.

But, next time you see me….

Ask.

This concludes today’s fun riff capturing the newest ‘book titles’. Prior to today, Judas stood alone. Feels therapeutic to add three new ‘titles’ – Ms. Treeted, Dr. Unk, and C S Coach.

Meanwhile, stay over-focused

Meanwhile, stay over-focused on leading yourself.

This is a profoundly simple concept.

This concept is simply profound.

Highest bar: mind, body, spirit, work, home.

Lead (yourself) like you mean it!

Christmas vs Easter

Close the skies and or send weapons.

Christmas vs Easter.

Which is your favorite holiday?

Christmas seems to be more festive, more fun, more celebratory. More decorations, songs, food, trees, presents, Santa, etc.

Christmas brings humanity a Messiah (in Christian doctrine).

Christmas is such a beautiful and humble love story.

Yet.

Yet Christmas means nothing without Easter.

Nothing.

Easter is hands down the most important day in my life.

Jesus-level Love.

Jesus-level redemption.

Jesus-level forgiveness.
