LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Eastern Cape, South Africa: Storms River region.

'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. 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.

44.06 Arizona: Some adventure, much beauty and always excitement. A few highlights of America West, the land so beautiful.




Take a look to the upper-right and click on the image to view our recently published novel, if you have a moment.



Choosing highlights is like many things, subjective. The photographs included are a handful from about 7 or 8 hikes. It takes an awful amount of effort to find better places than the Western United States to hike and bask in the glory of nature. Nevertheless, the world is filled with amazing sights. In conclusion, usually the best place to be is exactly where one is on the day. The advantage of that mindset is on the morrow, one may well be in the best spot of all time. Hey, it's a concept.



SARA Park, Lake Havasu: Can you wait for me? It's so difficult to keep up (down) with her.




A scene from Cathedral Rock, Sedona, of a church embedded in the red rocks.




A great platform to...what? Grand Canyon near south Kaibab trail




'Going round the bear': Bear Mountain, Sedona.



Cataract Lake, Williams. "Still waters run deep." A favorite of this trip as the ice interferes with the reflections.




A few more steps (rocks) before reaching the high of Cathedral Rock extension.




Lake Havasu: Attempting to fly; who knows? I just press the button on the camera.




A view from Bear Mountain.




Close to sunset at Cataract Lake: 'Let's go home, fellas'.




"Okay, Jen."




Lake Havasu: So rugged, so attractive.




Sedona: A 'stowaway' somewhere under 'Steamboat'.




Jen at the Cathedral (Rock), Sedona. Probably an appropriate time 'to pray', in any religion.




Early going on the Kaibab trail, Grand Canyon.




Lake Havasu, opposite Lizard peak. On way down, Jen issues a dare for the lower peak across the way.




Big deal! So you made it. (I thought so.😁)



Cheers,

Jenni and Jeffrey



Time to head off to one of our favorite places - Lake Mead.




and at sunset.
