In reply to Tom Perkins. Indeed! As my late grandmother used to say "It's nice to be nice."

Courtesy may include not only regard for others, but acts of simple kindness. A few years ago, I was struggling toward the end of the first day of a long walk in a remote area, when I passed a middle aged woman going the other way. Her few words of encouragement lightened my load and my attitude considerably, and I will always be grateful.

In reply to Robert Ballou. We worship a lot in the Church of The Red Rock ourselves.:)

Amen to all that you’ve said. Over the 35+ years that my wife and I backpacked the Sierra Nevada we found great joy in getting off the beaten path in a safe manner to enjoy the solitude of the high country (best at 10,000 ft or more) when conditions allowed. It’s why we are ardent members of the Church of the Rock…the higher the rock the better.

Great guidelines. I think people would do well to have these in the back of their minds. Another guideline I try to follow is be calm. I love being out in nature and firmly believe there aren’t a lot of reasons to leave a calm state.
