My knees are slowing getting happier and I did some riding in Yosemite and also made a summer solstice (June 21) ascent of White Mountain Peak.

Being ~8 pounds heavier (body fat) and in less good shape it was not so easy as least year, but I got 'er done.

I used the very nice Ricoh GR compact (see in-depth review)— razor sharp 28mm (equiv) lens and fits nicely in a pocket and has built-in in fill-flash and a good grip too.
