AN EXPLANATION OF THE TRAVEL EVENTS MENTIONED NEXT PHOTO =>
…In prior planning, Henry Gurr had arranged to work with Amateur Mountain Climber to Research The Likely Route that fits the narrative described of ZMM Book’s Narrator + Chris Climb: Which was set on the same July 17 & 18, 2024 Calendar Dates as Robert Pirsig’s own, 1968 ForRealClimb along Cottonwood Canyon, starting at the DeWeese Home.
… So it was that, after finishing events at DeWeese home on July 13, Henry & David had no other plans, until July 17, thus allowing 3 days for Henry’s trip to see his brother, in Kalispel, MT, accompanied by David Matos.
…The route to Kalispel, MT traveled through Helena, MT, where we detoured several miles NE to visited this Once-Upon-A-Time Brick Manufacturing Facility of The Archie Bray Foundation For The Ceramic Arts, which are show & discussed in the NEXT TWO Potos.
