LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Cedar Breaks Park (not Bryce), Utah.

'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.

61.51 Nevada: Boulder City: A hike up to Black Mountain and then onto Red Peak.

Red and Black Mountains after half-hour along the trail.
A view from somewhere on Red Mountain.
Lake Mead from Black Mountain in Nevada...Arizona half-way across the water.
A frequent hiking destination: The Frenchman.
The Frenchman at dawn, a while back.
A view of Mount Charleston, with Las Vegas strip in foreground.
Jen looks particularly vigorous as she ascends.
A long distance view of the bridge above Hoover Dam, Freeway-11, Highway 93 (bus), the Railroad Pass Hotel and of course, rugged desert and mountains.
Lake Mead from far and high via telephoto from Red Mountain.
...and another...
A view of the outskirts of Boulder City, a magnificent region, outside of summer.
A view into the deep desert of Lava Butte, a testing climb.
Happy about brunch.
'Bye from Mead and the two colored mountains' plus the incredible Fortification Mountain (aka 'Hill').
Cheers,
