Sierra Club \/ WTC Biography<\/span><\/em>: In the late 1990\u2019s I was backpacking with the Orange County Sierra Singles. Each year a particular pair of leaders advised me to take WTC. I didn\u2019t think there would be much more to learn about backpacking. I was wrong. I made friends in WTC that share the love of the outdoors. I was introduced to leaders that have a mountaineering skill set that I was to acquire in subsequent years.  I took different classes that formed the bases for safe travel over rock and snow. These classes were as follows:   <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Wilderness First Aid \u2013 April 2011 <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Wilderness First Aid \u2013 Scheduled May 30-31, 2015<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

These classes in addition to the many offered by Sierra Club Leaders formed my mountaineering skill set that any WTC student could have.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Wilderness Biography<\/span><\/em>:<\/span><\/p>\n

Something unique about me<\/span><\/em>: I was lucky enough to marry Sandy, another Sierra Club WTC Leader\/Instructor. Not so unique because other WTC Instructors have also become married. 30 years ago I experienced a knee injury while skiing in Alaska. This later led to arthritis which led to some of my knee cartilage disintegrating till I was bone on bone in that area. November 21, 2014 I had a knee replacement operation. I am still in recovery <\/em>and it will take about 6 months before I am back to my full activities. I will<\/em> not be able to participate in all of your fun WTC outings<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
