This past Saturday, we had a great trip up this iconic peak, and my friend Shawn (from CO), posted a nice write-up of our adventure here:

Do it! If you have the chance to do some climbing while you are able, do it! I may be past that, what with really messed up elbow, wrists, etc. |

I'm workin' on it Elizabeth! Gotta get some experience, gotta find the time and the lead climber who is willing to go when I can go. That is a tough combination it seems! But I know it will happen! _________________ ~~~Diane~~~

I would lead it again, just let me know when........It is such a different perspective looking from the needle instead of looking at it....one of my favorite trips in the state. _________________ Go confidently in the direction of your dreams!
