I got my first newspaper job in the fall, at a tiny suburban twice-weekly paper. I wore business casual clothes, even though I hated them, and wrote small stories, collected event calendar listings, and laid out pages of newsprint.

Amy continued at the day spa, helping the women of Scottsdale feel a little more beautiful. It was a shock to live in Scottsdale after I’d spent the past two years in Missoula, where every street seemed to end at a mountain or a river instead of a golf course.

I kept the part-time job at REI, pouring my paychecks from the store into discounted outdoor gear. I gradually stockpiled everything I’d need for backpacking and peak bagging.

I had never considered rock climbing, but once in a while, I would glance over at the climbing gear and ropes. One day at the store, a coworker told me he was headed to Mount Whitney in the spring to do the Mountaineers Route. I asked him what the point was of doing a technical route when there was a perfectly good trail up the back. I just wanted to be in the mountains, not haul all that metal stuff around to climb vertically.
