Good at Cat Herding, Bad at Blogging

Internet and other communications went to heck in Sequoia National Park and did not improve in Lassen.  By the time we got to Eureka, California, I was so far behind and otherwise engaged in final trip preparations, that I let the blog slide.  (For anyone following this blog for meaningful trip updates, my apologies for any panic that may have set in due to a lack of information!)  The rest of the tour was fabulous--great scenery, beautiful flying, interesting ground tours (and guides!) and a campfire cookout to remember.  I don't believe anyone has ever starved on a Parkwest trip, and this one was no exception.  Below is a group photo of all the cats I was herding for the past 11 days, taken in the magical Redwood National Park.
