Darin and I had not been on Heybrook Ridge since back before we started dating. We were up there in February 2012 for a Mountaineers Navigation class and he called me the next day to ask me out.
It was fun to walk a trail with a personal history. We've been slacking in our training for spring/summer mountaineering season and so we opted to carry the weight up a nice, easy trail. Even with the only 800' of gain we sure felt it in our legs. It was a bit of a reality check as we stared out over so many beautiful mountains from the lookout at the top.
