"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Bad weather dayHad a short window on a bad forecast day. Didn't actually rain on us, but we got too wet/cold from the existing rain/dew. Decided to come back on a better day for the others.

South Fork LoopDid a loop around the south fork lake creek drainage starting on Middle Mountain (via northeast ridge) and continuing around to PT 13322 (aka "Lake Fork Peak") and back to the car. Nice way to climb a lot of peaks that are close to each other.

NW FaceParked at 11,700 feet in Peekaboo Gulch and hiked directly up Middle Mountain's steep NW face from there. Then traversed to UN 13,463 well below the ridge crest on the south side. Finished up with the finest and most brightly colored scree descent I've ever experienced... and I've surfed a LOT of scree.
