How quickly the weather can...

How quickly the weather can change in Banff National Park. The summit of Mt. Bell. Went from blizzard conditions to pure sunshine within 20 minutes and then rain again on approach trail out. Late conditions making scrambles Alpine climbs in the Canadian Rockies.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."" --Rene Daumal
