"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."

Snowy, May 2012Combined with Grays. Was on snow almost the whole time - did it with micro spikes and poles. People were up there with face masks, helmets, axes, crampons. Others were trying with tennis shoes. Gotta love it. Did it hungover and ended up getting altitude sickness and was the most light headed I've ever been. Some guy gave me ibuprofen at the bottom but I didn't even try to drive my car for a good 45 minutes once I got down.

Dead Dog Couloir + GraysClimbed Dead Dog Couloir with Kevin (shknbke). Nice firm snow in the couloir made for a very enjoyable climb. Then we tagged Grays and took the trail down. Great day!
