Yosemite Hike Series. 2007 Aera Energy LLC

"Wilderness is a necessity. . . a fountain of life. . . thousands of tired, nerve -shaken, over-civilized people who are beginning to find out that going to the mountain is going home; that wilderness is a necessity; that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life. " —John Muir

Hike #1: Mt. Pinos (4. 21. 07)

My Yosemite experience began with the first practice hike to Mt. Pinos. This short beautiful hike invigorated me and left me feeling euphoric for days. It also made me want to be more fit for the next hike at Mill Creek…as the excitement and anticipation grew, I felt the desire to physically work toward the next hike. –Bea Flores

I got back to an active lifestyle about one year ago. Since then, my heart rate dropped down from above 70 to below 55 BPM, my cholesterol dropped about 30 points, and my weight dropped more than 30 pounds. I sleep better and have a very high energy level awake. Thank you, and I look forward to the next big healthy and active event. –Chet Bryniarski
