Squaw Peak for the First Time

Squaw Peak Lookout

Dad took me up to Squaw Peak this afternoon. Shannon and her cross country team park at the bottom of the road and run up to the lookout, a good four miles. There were several para-gliders taking off from the area where Bob is standing in the pano photo. I told Bob that I didn’t need that kind of adrenaline rush. Just watching the para-gliders take off was enough cortical stimulation for me.

Yesterday after visiting Squaw Peak for the first time I texted Mark while I was on the way home with Bob. Here’s what I said:

Me--“Just left Squaw Peak. Never been there. Dad and I don’t think it’s a good make out place. Too many people.”          

Mark—“Well that’s good to know. I’ve never been either. I just hear that’s where people go. Perhaps it’s better when it’s dark?”

Me—“Maybe. The view is awesome and downhill biking would be great?”
