LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Argentina: Laguna de Los Tres.

'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 couple of 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 2023, the blog contained over 1,560 hikes (less than that 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.

20. 31 Page, Arizona: A hike to Horseshoe Bend and then rock climbing for the 'kids' upriver. 20.32 Desert hiking proper.






Jenni captures a full frontal of Horseshoe Bend.







The walls of the Colorado River are overwhelming—upriver from Grand Canyon.




On her way following the river by way of rock scrambling. Moving right, turn left at the bend
and down the side. If you will, going around the bend.





Sun lights up rocks just at the right time while one of us perched comfortably.




Follow that bird. (slide 1)




Where'd the bird go? What a place for action! (slide 2)




One small step for man; apparently, one too many. Too old to chase birds...pity. (slide 3)





Hiking in Death Valley, California while sleeping in Nevada.




A little bleak, a little dry, more than a little attractive.




Heading to the peaks behind.




'The long and winding road'.




Our peak behind, camera focus is on the immediate danger.




Coming 'through the rye' on our return from the peak.




Jenni climbing rough, every young woman's secret desire, I'm told.




Cheers from the desert.



Cheers,

Jenni and Jeffrey
