LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

The greatest canyon of all (Grand Canyon). Jen is stuck behind a western horse-party. Hay! Hey, Let the lady through.

'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. Our 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.

24.03 A Wave from Valley of Fire Park, Overton, Nevada.


An early morning pre-sunrise visit to 'Valley of Fire' set the flames burning inside us as we witnessed
some spectacular scenes. This follows the previous evening's sunset at this remarkable historic area in Nevada.
In fact, we had occasion to walk through a slot canyon during the second hike which was far more meaningful than
the notorious 'slots' of the Silver State. The two hikes, both short, provided different perspectives but meaningful.
The climax of the "Fire Wave" hike was of course, the magnificent few boulders covered in wave patterns.


Sun differentiates the wave-rock.





A type of 'wave' from Jenni at daybreak.





Dawn: Softening the landscape before the day's grind.





'Wave' for the camera.





Full, early sun creates a golden environment.





Favorite type of boulders to climb at a wonderful hour (6:20am).






Setting the early morning scene in the Valley.





The colors are remarkable when enhanced by the sunlight.





A park loaded with exploratory boulders. This is the 'White Domes' region.





Dawn makes an impressive statement.





"Waving" into a rising sun.






The golden wave.





Time to leave this impressive set of rocks.





Apparently the editor is staying longer.



Cheers,
