I’m back




Crampons-1

We all made it off the mountain in one piece. We reached the top of Disappointment Cleaver at 12,200 feet where we decided to turn around. A few of the team had altitude sickness and weren’t up to continuing for another 4-5 hours to the summit (hard to do when you can’t stomach food).

Even though we didn’t “summit”, it was an incredible trip and experience. I am sore, tired, and sunburnt but I don’t mind.

More pictures and details to follow.

    I was going to make some sarcastic comment about you not climaxing or the metric system, but I just have to say “holy freaking cow that’s high!” Good job, man. Can’t wait to see the photos.
