Mammoth
























"Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul."
-John Muir














This past Saturday my Dad and Denise decided to volunteer their time and do some trail maintenance on our beloved Mammoth Rock trail. This is a beautiful trail that we can walk to from our home in snowcreek. June 6th was National Trails Day, a day for all of us who use these trails to preserve, protect and maintain the trails we love.

  1. Great remembrance of a satisfying day. Thanks, Matt. It was really cool being of service as a family. We will always remember that you notched the post and hung the "Mammoth Rock Trail" sign. By the way, it was hard work for me. After 3 hours, I must say that my back and shoulders were sore. I like that, really makes one feel connected to things. -D

  2. Sounds like a fun and rewarding weekend in beautiful Mammoth. Not to mention the great 12 mile hike to Valentine Lake!! Good for the body and soul. I also love the John Muir quote. He has some very powerful writing's about the Sierra. Love ya, Susan
