Clustiere, I'm glad the pic brought back fond memories.
Whether it is genes, environment, or the two combined, there does seem to be something inter-generational about celebrating the mountain lifestyle. I've often wondered if people had watershed moments in which they recognized the mountains were for them...or maybe some were embedded in hills their whole lives and never considered otherwise.
For me, there were a few early life moments that stuck out, but primary was an epic family canoe trip through the boundary waters at age 5.

What's that line from Pink Floyd..."Skating on the thin ice of life?". something like that. Anyway, that looks FUN!

Wow..that was nice! I second everything that was posted above, I celebrate the fact that I actually know some of you great people due to "Celebrating the Mountain Lifestyle".
I will go outside, step onto the porch and take in a great deep breath of fresh clean mountain air!
A salute to my life and you all!

Well thanks L, ...and well over a hundred other people are best too;
And that's only to mention the few I happen to I know.
How many folks in all the walks of life can say they enjoy a core group of aquaintances & friends whom they've known since High School and still, to this day, with whom they enjoy a steady, even daily, rapport?
That's seems to be one of the foremost & most valuable attributes of the mountain lifestyle.
