Very much looking forward to climbing with this group...almost as much as I'm looking forward to the pre-climb breakfast being served at 6am by the lovely Leslie Hunter.
ReplyDeleteWow, sounds exciting and fun. I thought you were going with RMI but this would be even more adventurous.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to all of you for a successful climb. Be safe and have fun. Looking forward to hearing all about it and pictures of course.
Prady.
Carl, your dad sent me your link and when I logged onto it this morning, there you were, climbing up Mt. Ranier. This is kinda cool to see where you are in your climb. I'll check back later.
