“It’s the unpredictable elements that throw our lives off course, for better or for worse,” writes Niki Yoblonski. We leave a trailhead with some idea of what we’re seeking, but on true adventures, what we walk away with is never what we expected. When Niki and her boyfriend, Jason, set out to climb Mt. Darwin one Labor Day weekend, they didn’t take home a summit photo, or a bag of shiny coins, but, by a series of slim chances, they took home a treasure perhaps more valuable than anything they could have expected.
