Exotic-- esp. for Idaho!

Voted 10/10

Exotic pic-- it looks like Fred is fighting his way up a big Alaskan peak, rather than 'lil 'ol Stevens!

	Hasn't voted	Ok, here is my confession for the day. Fred saw me trying to get a good picture of him swinging away at the cornice, so he held his axe there for a second. Didn't bring or need a rope, nothing steeper than about 35+ degrees, with the exception of the cornice.
