Humbolt Peak Trip

This is the album for the Humboldt Peak trip on June 17 2007. The trip was done in honor of Dave Worthington, the "Talus Monkey", whom was tragically killed on Humbolt in May (but not on the route we climbed).

For the full thread on the climb, please visit the thread below on 14ers.com:

Talus Monkey, rest in peace and thanks for looking down on us. We will always remember you. Thanks to everyone else who came along too. It was great to meet you all.

"In fact, I think you should add your body fat to the rating of the climb, to get a true measure of your inner climber. So climbing a 5.7 with 22% body fat is way harder than climbing a 5.14 with 3% body fat." --Mike Yukish
