    Adventures of the unanticipated. Thank you for taking the time to include us even after you got back from an incredibly challenging, gorgeous hike to find 😢 another challenge. All done with a great attitude and example of how to embrace the journey.

    Car issues!!! And always crazy when they're caused by wildlife. Hope you both & your wallet have recovered. (But it was a little comical watching Kristy's face riding in the truck on top of the tow truck in the dirt road...the surprise mixed with apprehension at every bump!). Glad you made it safely back home!!

    Wow! I didn't know you could legally ride in a vehicle being towed, either! OMG. Like a roller coaster ride! Also good to know about Progressive being unable to find a tow but willing to reimburse, as that's who I have for insurance as well. I'd love to know how that plays out! RIP, poor marmot. 😕

    I'm sorry for your difficulties, but I couldn't help but laugh at your reactions when being towed. That said, I, too, am sad about the Marmot. The animal lover in me gets a broken heart any time something like that happens.

    In Michigan it sure isn’t legal to ride in a towed vehicle, but sometimes there just aren’t any good choices. Congrats on the hike and being able to get out of there.

    RIP, little marmot 😢 Where I grew up, we had to bang on the hood of the car before we got in to start it, because cats and wildlife would get up in there. One of my own cats died in my neighbour's engine 😢

    What an adventure!!! You couldn't tell that story and be believed if we hadn't seen the marmot. Four of us had to ride in a towed vehicle in Illinois years ago and I think it is illegal. Will all that loose hair come off the sheep? They look pretty weird. How many 14,000 footers have you done and how many are there. My granddaughter does those too. Can't wait for your next adventure and I hope you get your money back. Take care, be safe.

    We have a trailhead or two in California where people leave chicken wire for the next people because the marmots are notorious for chewing up belts and things. I know that isn’t the case for you guys this time but have you run into that before? Glad you are getting home safely! Quite an adventure!
