Kimber and I have been Rock Climbing several times since my previous blog on Rock Climbing in North Georgia at Mt. Yonah. Mt. Yonah is a great venue for introductory rock climbing but also for extremely challenging and scenic climbing routes. We decided to travel to the North Georgia mountains from our Atlanta bed and breakfast this Sunday morning [...]
A few weeks ago, Kimber, a friend and one of our Landscape Designers at the Inn, casually mentioned that she once went rock climbing in North Georgia when she was in her teens and enjoyed it immensely. She indicated that she enjoyed heights and would like to try her hand at rock climbing again. Well, [...]
If you’ve read some of my previous blogs then you know I’m really into alpine climbing and mountaineering in general. Since I’ve gained some experience over the last six years, I decided to up the ante, so to speak, and venture into the realm of more difficult routes. One of my goals for this year [...]
One of our favorite places to vacation during the winter is Jackson Hole, Wyoming. If you like to ski or climb, then surely this must be heaven. And after a long, hard day breaking trail, a healthy, heardy meal and a home crafted beer at the Snake River Brewery can’t be beat. It’s where the [...]

Yesterday the weather was beautiful, in fact, when I crested the summit, to my suprize, a small wedding ceremony was taking place. Groom and best man in black & white tuxes and bride and attendants in black dresses, in heels, no [...]

Only Granite Peak in Montana and Gannett peak in Wyoming remain on the list but an attempt on Granite comes [...]
Well, indeed, the time clock is ticking as indicated on the previous post titled “Second Chance”. Scroll down several posts to view the background info. For those guests following our blog and other interested viewers who have inquired, the mountain in question is Mt. Hood near Portland, OR. Yesterday, my gracious and understanding boss gave [...]
Well, the clock is ticking for a second attempt for the summit of this mountain. My friend, Stefan, (back row, second from right) is accompanying his Dad, (Back row,center) in attempting one of his final peaks of the State Highpoints. Quite an achievement! We were turned back in June several years ago due to high [...]
Well, it finally snowed in North Georgia, although only about a half inch, but just enough to make things pretty. So, combined with 35_mph winds and 27 degree temps, conditions were perfect for a day hike. An hour and a half north of Atlanta puts you on the Appalachian Trail and into stellar views of [...]
