Hike Half Dome: Anyone Can* Series (10 lessons, $4.95)

Rick discusses the dangers of heat stroke on this hike using a real example from a 26 year old Virginia women Rick helped rescue. Rick also reviews the hike back taking the John Muir Trail which is the preferred route given that trail is less of a strain on your knees. Rick shares some of the best parts from his book.

Next Rick takes questions from the audience on when to depart for the hike, questions about what he normally eats on the way, introduces an upcoming Smart Phone App for Half dome and shares stories of marmots.
