    We’re back, and as many of you already know we successfully reached the summit of Guadalupe Peak. The trip was highly successful. We achieved all of our objectives and learned a lot in the process. Extremely high winds, sub-freezing temperatures, and bad road coffee were just some of the challenges we faced along the way.

    We’re processing photos, video, and writing the trip report now. We’ll be adding new content throughout the week. We’ll even have some reviews of some of the gear we took with us.

    We’d like to thank all of you who are following us at this early stage, contributing your own stories, offering climbing tips, and generally cheering us on. Sharing our first summit experience with so many friends, family, and climbers is not something we’ll ever forget.

    Team NSC, congratulations on your climb! It was great to follow you via Twitter. I lived vicariously through you guys for a few days, and you made me discover a new peak.

    And I agree – a good tent in high winds and sub-freezing temps is just fine…

    Can’t wait to read all about it, and see all the pics!
