"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

White couloirDid this as a snow climb with three other friends (SP members). Kane is right, the rock up here is as loose and dangerous as it gets. Mostly class-3 moves to the summit once off the west face. Traversed the ridge to "Lightning Pyramid" (13,722).

Route Climbed: West Face Date Climbed: July of 2005I'm glad I got this one out of the way. Because of my love for the Maroon Creek Valley, I knew at some point I needed to get this summit. Happy to have had perfect weather as well. Still need to get 13,631 and 13,722.
