Mission Project

By Tony Farley

My plan was to hike to Tomales Point in Point Reyes National Seashore, see the birds, the elk, and enjoy the ocean on a wonderful sunny day. I then was hoping to see the sunset from the Point Reyes Lighthouse. I had a perfect day up until the fog and wind came in. The temperature dropped and everything got soaked by the blowing fog. With wind gusts up to 50 mi/hr, the unprepared ran for their cars and left Point Reyes all to me. You see, I knew that a nice sunny day can quickly turn to bitter cold in a matter of minutes out on Point Reyes and I brought along my Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Parka. I bring it everywhere because I know that whatever the weather throws at me, I know I'll be warm. If I have others with me, and someone is ill prepared, I can bring it out, put it on them, and they are warm and cozy instantly.
