Thanks Big Lew, if I recall I was more in trouble with my homework than the school itself. ;-) I usually don't skip school, but when I do it's for a fun outdoor adventure!
I recommend coming in late summer. Early summer still has lots of snow up here which is when I had my most frightening mountaineering experience of all times.
Hi Josh, another 15 minutes well spent catching up on and your brother's adventures. I still maintain that you two remind me of Fred and Helmy Beckey--a very high compliment. look for his book "Challenge of the North Cascades" (more of an auto biography) and see if i am crazy or not. Great job Josh
Thanks Joel, I originally wrote this back in 2009 but reworded it a bit. The book definitely sounds interesting! As of now I have a lot of homework to catch up on, but eventually I should have the time to get back into reading. I appreciate the comment. :-D Speaking of crazy I like to phrase it like this "There are two kinds of crazy... Good and Bad... just make sure your the right kind of crazy!".
I am glad this TR was posted up now. Josh has been going through a lot in the past couple weeks from all of the recent injuries. Please wish him well on his recovery so he can do more cool trips like this one.

Re: Very Nice!!!Thanks Matt, better late than never I say. Plus I figured the pictures would make up for that. Certainly you should do Sahale this year!

Re: good picturesThanks! Too bad I was very limited on what I could photograph due to using a 128 MB memory card.
