Capitol Peak

I hiked Capitol Peak Monday and Tuesday of this week. Allison had to start work, but I had one week left to play. I went with a friend named Jacob who I had met the night before. We hiked the first six miles Monday afternoon after a long drive. After a long night without much sleep we set off on the last two miles. The last two miles took four hours to summit and required a good amount of technical climbing. This all seemed like a good idea at the time. Looking at the pictures...maybe not.

Matt's report card gave me the motivation for the last quarter mile.

    Those pictures are unbelievable! What a way to make a new friend . . . risk your life! Mike's already decided that you need a good sleeping bag for Christmas!
