We’re back in Houston. We made it to 10,400 feet after significant struggle with sometimes deep, almost always unstable, snow. There were a number of issues and challenges but also a lot of lessons learned. We’re mostly happy with our effort – we definitely gave it everything we had and we learned much from Alan Arnette.
I’ll post a full trip report Monday. Many thanks to all of you who followed along and offered advice and support. The adventure will continue.
“Getting to the top is optional, but getting down is mandatory. A lot of people get focused on the summit and forget that.”
