About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. 2013-03-11 Into the Canyon. I have slept in unheated rooms before in the winter, but sleeping on snow in a tent, with nothing but a tarp, tent, thermal air mattress, and sleeping bag between me and the snow was a new experience. (Ok, yes, I was wearing thermal base layers, a midlayer hoodie, and my outer shell jacket also. And a stocking cap). It was chilly, to put it mildly. Bryce Canyon in winter, 2013. I moved to California in 1998 and left in 200...

About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. 2013-03-11 Good Morning, Campers! Waking up in the pre-dawn light, the first thing I did was to giggle a little bit. Surviving the night is not normally a challenge for me; I am in fairly good health. But this was the first time I’d slept in a tent pitched in snow at 8000 feet. Boo-yeah! Here is the video that I was wise enough to record for you. I may have spent roughly an hour trying to get that wood to burn. We had enough of a fire that I was ...

About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. 2013-03-12 The Big Hike. After a slightly better night of sleep, I woke before dawn, and realized it was time to try to catch Sunrise Point at sunrise. Hauling ourselves over there after a doughnut-sugar infusion, we made it roughly in time. The best you can hope for otherwise, is something that looks vaguely like this. Sunrise Point at Sunrise. Sunrise at Sunrise Point, from a better perspective. Determined Cynthia is Determined. Sure, why not?

About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. 2013-03-12 Something Wise About Journeys and Destinations. So, we got up early enough to hit Sunrise Point *at sunrise.* Go us! And I polished off roughly half the remaining donuts. Well, a girl’s gotta eat, folks. And then, in the restaurant uploading photos we had a Plan. Not just a plan. But a Plan. What’s a hike without war paint? Beginning the Fairyland Loop, some of the immediate challenges became clear. For example, the trail starts on the...

About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. 2013-03-10 Westward, ho! We headed out for Bryce Canyon, early early early in the morning. My (Warren’s) flight departed at 6:05 AM from Raleigh-Durham Airport (RDU) in North Carolina. Little did I know that the chill morning air would be balmy compared to the majority of our time on the road. Fortunately, ticketing, checking luggage, and security screening all went off without a hitch. Snow-capped mountain on the flight to Las Vegas. Now, “car...

About Geek Field Guide. Non omnes vagantes aberrarunt. Dining in Europe: Dietary accommodations. Traveling with food allergies can be rough. Trying to get dietary accommodations everywhere you go can be frustrating and potentially embarrassing, when you have to ask about what’s in every item on the menu that looks good to you. Conversely, in Europe, one of the things I found to be fascinating is how thoroughly food is labeled in the countries I visited. Are you allergic to gluten, lactose, and soy? Europ...
