Wondered how the altitude would treat you. Glad you made it safely. Cool pictures.

Hello, I am hiker who told you I came over from Mt. Russel. Yes, your wife did look a little tired when I was talking to you. I decended the mountaineer's route just before you. Did you make down before dark? I was pretty tired too. I just completed Mt. Carriolon, Russel, Muir, and Whitney.

Made it back to camp (Iceberg) after dark. Bagging the 4 peaks in a day - that's very impressive stuff. Think I was very tired too since it took me a while to catch on to what you were saying on the summit - sorry. Radek
