LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Greece: Gerontovrachos Parnassos, which means of course: 'Sticky Boots'.

'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'

Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.

Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.

We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every three, or slightly less, months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.

By the end of 2024, the blog contained over 1,636 hikes (far less than actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.

Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end.
O
ur reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."

"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

68.22 Andorra: Estanys de Juclar, solid rocky climb to a rewarding lake destination.

Very anti-social place when it comes to lakes. Most of them 'reside' from 1,000 to many thousands of feet above ground level. One of us ahead, heading through this channel.
Jen looks back: A hint there's a lake somewhere higher.
That was very smart of us...we reach the lake.
We head for a position well above the lake. Jen mentioned we would attain better views. (What did we say about being so smart?)
We found it to be a delightful view of just a small section of the water and contents.
Waiting for the slower climbers.
Earlier view of the surroundings on the way up.
Looks like the old man will make it, finally.
Some views at the top...the following 3 photos.
Shown earlier in an introductory blog but then Jen paid a lot of money to 'show off' again.
We found this part of the lake to be the most attractive.
After crossing a very useful bridge...aren't they all.
There she comes...quite a tough hike over the rocks and upon stones.
Rich blue of the water makes for very pleasant visuals.
Cheers, 

Jenni and Jeffrey
