Ha, love the Snyder quote. I'd like to read more of his stuff. Really enjoying the book about Everett Ruess. I'm suprised I've never heard of him. A Vagabond For Beauty - fitting title.
the cool thing about mountaineering is that yes the air gets thinner but the temps get- cooler! you labor & labor, up through the snow but it keeps you chilled, if you know what I mean...... just be careful when you take on Mt Hood, say hello to Mr Cartier when you pass what's left of him.
I love that you do this and I hate that you do this

ReplyDeleteSo did you take that picture, or was it one of your Sherpas?
