Thanks for the feedback everyone!

HD - I had some trouble with the stairs when I first woke up this morning as well! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Mac - there was a good mile and a half that was not quad passable. Then there is the peak trek.

Dan - We did indeed make it above the treeline! We were happy to find snow as well. As my buddy said "Now we know we climbed a real mountain!" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

PS. If you want me to stash a dog tag up there let me know. Be about the only reason I climb it again! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
