"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."

Route Climbed: Trail from Tioga Pass Date Climbed: Oct 20, 2002Woke up early and decided to go and see the sunrise from Gaylor Peak--a plan that might have worked better if Mt. Dana (2000 ft higher) didn't lie directly east! My main memory is of it being damn cold sitting on the summit waiting for the sun to come up, but the views all around were worth it.
