Non Academic Interests:

• Mountaineering:

This year I've been hiking in the Sweetwater Mountains, a mountain range located in both California and Nevada east of Highway 395 between Bridgeport and Topaz Lake. So far we have climbed Mount Patterson (11,800+), the highest peak in the range, and East Sister (10,400). An August snow storm kept us from climbing Wheeler Peak (11,600+).

During mid-August I hiked in the Columbia River Gorge of Oregon and climbed with my son Mount St. Helens.

• Ski Mountaineering and Backcountry Skiing

This past winter I've skied, Jakes Peak (west side of Lake Tahoe), Twin Peaks, Deep Creek Peak. Basin Peak and during the spring I've skied with my son, for the nth time, Pyramid Peak (10,000), the highest peak in the Desolation Wilderness. Over Memorial Day weekend a group of us skied in the Sawtooth Range (west of Bridgeport) and west of Conway Summit (Virginia Lakes).

• San Francisco

The delights of the opera and ACT.
