How awesome it is to be able to touch those peaks in December, normally locked up tight! Got any North Buttress of Fury shots on that trip?

It was an amazing experience. We did circle around the north side of Luna Cirque, but it was all in a shadow in the afternoon light. I did get a couple shots of Fury's north buttress (below) - looks pretty forbidding this time of year!

Really amazing. John is such a nice guy...he took my mom up in his plane for a flight around Mt. Baker and Shuksan. Tell him hello for me!
