Len Bjork Palo Alto, California

From Toni Martinazzi's Journal: Sunday - 5/4/80 - Little Norway to Sorenson's Overlook Resort
Ate breakfast at the Little Norway restaurant. Wonderful food but really slow. The owners are Hungarian and certainly charming people. We got a late start and took plenty of time to get to Sorenson's Resort. This is in the middle of no where just past Luther Pass. It was a long day - around 18-19 miles. Went through a four foot drift of snow. Len Bjork, who joined us at Folsom, left today to return to his home in Palo Alto. I walked with him in the afternoon and he is a very interesting fellow. He may return toward the end of May and bring his daughter. |
| Len Bjork, sometime after HikaNation |
After HikaNation, Toni Martinazzi remembers climbing Mt. Washington in New Hampshire with Len Bjork, Shirley Hearn, and Joe Shute. And Shirley Jones Hearn recalls, Len was a wonderful person. We did many hikes together including hiking rim-to-rim of the Grand Canyon, the Chilkoot Trail in Alaska and trying (unsuccessfully) twice to climb Mt. Whitney in California. Those are wonderful memories for me. |
