We had to cancel about three trips to mountains because of various illnesses in our family in the end of summer. The one we were really sorry about was backpacking trip. So when we saw that the weather in the end of September is still nice, we decided to go to Sierras for backpacking trip. Our friend Liz and her son joined us. The drive to eastern side of the mountains is quite long, so we left on Tuesday evening and stayed one night in hotel. On Wednesday we finished the drive and did our hike (1.6 miles) to our camp. Adam walked the distance without a problem, Emma walked some parts. When we got to the camp Adam started to complain that he has headache. We were in little bit over 10000ft above sea level and he felt it. We tried to feed him and make him drink. He got little bit better, but then around 5 pm he practically collapsed and fell asleep. We were worried that he has serious case of altitude sickness so we decided to leave most equipment at camp (we already set up out tent) and go back to car and return tomorrow either to pick up our stuff or stay. When we put Adam to carrier, he woke up and cried that he doesn't want to leave. We gave him some food and started to walk back anyway. It was getting dark and since Adam was in the carrier, I had to carry Emma in arms and it wasn't easy. As we walked Adam still complained, but he started to sound back to normal, so we decided to go back to camp.
On Thursday we went for a short hike to another lake. It was easy hike, we spent most of the day just sitting by another lake. On Friday hiked back to the car and drove back.

Na konci leta jsme museli zrusit asi tri vylety do hor kvuli ruznym nemocem v rodine. Vylet ktery nas mrzel nejvice byl ten, kde jsme meli jit kempovat do hor. Tak kdyz jsme videli, ze pocasi na konci zari je porad pekne, rozhodli jsme se, ze pojedeme jeste do hor Sierras. Nase kamaradka Liz a jeji syn se k nam pridala. Cesta na vychodni stranu hor je docela dlouha, tak jsme vyjeli v utery vecer a prespali po ceste v hotelu. Ve stredu rano jsme dokoncili jizdu a pak jsme sli (2.5 km) do naseho kempu. Adam usel celou cestu bez problemu, Emma sla nejake useky. Kdyz jsme dosli do kempu, Adam si zacal stezovat, ze ho boli hlava. Byli jsme v nadmorske vysce neco pres 3000 m a on to pocitoval. Snazili jsme se mu dat jidlo a piti. Udelalo se se mu o neco lepe, ale kolem 17 h prakticky odpodl a usnul. Meli jsme strach, ze ma tezsi formu nadmorske nemoci a tak jsem se rozhodli nechat veci v kempu (uz jsme meli postaveny stan) a jit zpet k autu a vratili bychom se zitra bud jen pro veci a nebo zustat dalsi noc. Kdyz jsme dali Adamka do sedacky, tak se vzbudil a zacal plakat, ze nechce odejit. Dali jsme mu nejake jidlo a vyrazili jsme i tak zpet. Uz jse stmivalo a jelikoz Adamek byl v nositku, musela jsem nest Emicku v naruci a to nebylo jednoduche. Jak jsme sli, Adamek si stale stezoval, ze nechce odejit, ale zacal se projevovat normalne a tak jsem se rozhodli vratit do kempu.
Ve ctrvtek jsem sli na kratkou prochazku k dalsimu jezeru. Byl to pohodovy vyslap, vetsinu dne jsme stravili sezenim u dalsiho jezera. V patek jsme sli zpet k autu a jeli zpet.
