Mt. Shuksan from Ptarmigan Ridge |
I've missed so many hikes so far this summer, because of my fall on the Damfino Lakes hike in early July and the subsequent tailbone injury. I've only made one attempt since that one, and it was really difficult. I keep thinking I'm better and then push myself too soon, and then I'm injured again.
In an hour, I'll leave for my appointment with the acupuncturist, and hopefully he'll tell me that it might be okay for me to hike with the Trailblazers this coming Thursday. It's not a really hard hike, and I've done it plenty of times before and know exactly what to expect. But I'll let him tell me whether I can probably do it without further injury. And be willing to stand down if he thinks I should. Not happily, though.
:-(
Hopefully you'll have the chance.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to go but don’t push it as you’ve said.
ReplyDeleteFingers and toes crossed for you. Tightly.
ReplyDeleteHope he gives you the all clear !

Hope he says ok.
ReplyDeleteSeptember weather is usually lovely here. I hope you get to go play in your mountains.
ReplyDeleteHope you got good news and that the hike is incident free! I shall be thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteI wish you luck in getting to go on the hike.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo. Tempting to hike. Good luck with the next hike should you get the green light from your acupuncturist.
ReplyDeleteIf he does say okay I hope you take it slow and easy--and stop if you need to. I know you don't want to be cut off from hiking for the rest of the season. Good luck! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a view. Sure hope you can but only if he gives you the go ahead. You sure don't want to set yourself back.
ReplyDeleteI can feel your longing to get back to your routine hikes. Keeping my fingers crossed you get an 'okay'.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! I can sure understand your longing!
