Well it wasn't a dangerous woops but very frustrating. I had taken my memory out of my camera in order to look at photos on a laptop. The next day at 5am I forgot to reload.
The 20 miles of the thousand Island loop near Mammoth,Ca was one of the most beautiful hikes I have ever done, in over 40 years of hiking. It includes part of the John Muir trail and the Pacific Crest trail. Gorgeous flowers everywhere. Amazing scenery 5-6 lakes,snowcapped mountains and zero photos! Anyway it's in my memory (the brain type) and I'll always have that.
Below a photo off the web. I suppose I'll just have to buy the book my friend is getting published on the John Muir trail. He is the Photographer, another guy is writing the text.
Speaking of memory don't forget my cause, the american Himalayan foundation there is a link on the right column of my blog under Nepal.

Rob,
I'm the (older)Australian based brother of Gill in Venice (the Dolomite walking Queen)
As a recent convert to trail running she knew I'd be interested in your outings. Some of those trails you run are truly spectacular - before my next trip over there I'll check with the Goats calendar to see what's coming up.
Best of luck with your preparations for Nepal
