Hear Frank Stipak Describing his Last Difficult Backpack Trip


The last backpack trip my father did in the High Sierras was a very difficult cross-country trip over climbers' passes, several over 13,000 feet in elevation. We did that in 1992, when he was age 77. You can listen to him describing the trip in 1997.
