"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

1st of 4 PeaksFrom Islip Saddle, I decided to hit the furthest peak on my list first and work my way back home. Quite icy on lower trail sections then no need for crampons after Windy Gap. Enjoyable hike but the views suck thanks to poor air quality and burnt trees.
