This is the first year the Dean Family, albeit only 4 of the 7, officially went up to the Lodge. The way the reservation process worked at the time saved hikers a specific renewable date every year. Dad managed to snag 4 spots that someone relinquished that year. So Dad took Mom, Noah and I up.
We met Mrs. Brown for the first time. She was LeConte's operator for years and was taking her grandson up that year. Mom also spotted a bear on the way down, which we, of course, backed away from. We went up and down the Boulevard Trail.
