Once again I would like to thank you very much for the great guidance in your back yard which the Sierra Nevada has become to you. It was a memorable trip and I still realise that we were extremely lucky in not walking into one of the heavy thunderstorms occurring during our visit in the region.

I had a very pleasant surprise when I opened the guide book that you were so kind to give to me: where I kind of regretted the lack of time to ask you to write in it, you had already pre-empted that potential question. Have started reading in it last weekend and it is a very pleasant book! The maps are much better than the other book I have, so that's a big upside :) And I like the fact that you have continued the writing of a previous author, which makes for some history in it.

I am seriously thinking about planning a tour skiing trip, with 3 or 4 mates. Will discuss with my them next time we have dinner. All a bit more my age - so first half of their fifties - and in pretty ok shape for office guys. We all still tend to actively participate in playing sports. Will stay in touch and revert when I have spoken to them. Pleae give my regards to Felipe.
