High Hut Snowshoe/Backpack trip on November 19, 2011






November 19, 2011 was the annual High Hut Snowshoe backpack trip that Bill Crone had organized. Those who joined in the backpack were Ken and Leeza, Eric and Bonnie, Eric and Gwen, and Bill. Bronka and I had planned to snowshoe up there just for the day. Unfortunately, after driving over to the gate, the snow was very deep and it was decided that this would not be the best time to go up to High Hut.

Everyone came back to Bronka’s home. It was decided to go on a hike to West Side Road in Mt. Rainier Park. Bronka led the way! So we all walked from Bronka’s home onto the levy and then into the park and up West Side Road, enjoying one another’s company and the surroundings.

After snowshoeing for a little while, we all stopped and had lunch, as it was that time. As we were eating lunch, Ted came up the road with our doggies, Buster and Polly. They both just love Bronka. We all had a great hike. After the hike, every one came back to Bronka’s. All the food that was going to go up to High Hut was going to be eaten by all at dinnertime. What a great feast!!!!

All the backpackers spent the night at Bronka’s. Bill stayed at our home and started a wonderful breakfast for all that he brought most over to Bronka’s. Bill made the most fantastic pancakes, they were mouthwatering! There were also sausages, bacon and eggs. Another great feast!!

The weekend was a great success, even though the High Hut backpack did not happen.

Bronka is the perfect hostess. She always makes everyone feel at home, very comfortable and so very welcome. Another great weekend!
