I have been married -51yrs, father of six and, GRANDFATHER of twelve! I love snow camping, X-C skiing, backpacking, photography, snorkeling (Hawaii), reading (technical material) and, coaching children's sports, now with grandchildren -soccer, softball, youth football, etc.).
My favorite backpacking and snow camping areas are in the 'high country' of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range, especially Yosemite NP.
