Occupation: Airline Pilot

A Few Words: Greetings Fellow Climbers! Isn't this is the greatest sport ever! I also share your passion for climbing our planet's highest peaks ...the summits that really take your breath away! I started climbing the Cascades back in college with multiple trips up Mt. Rainier and have been gaining peaks ever since. In 2012, I topped out with my amazing girlfriend on RitaCuba Blanco (17,749') down south in Colombia. We then climbed Mt Rainier (via the Emmons) when a snow bridge collapsed delaying our descent. To start 2013 off, we explored Mt Tapachao in the middle of the Pacific, then Humphreys Peak in AZ. Next should be Kilimanjaro this summer before the whole glacier melts. and still planning Pico de Orizaba, the tallest point in Mexico, 3rd highest in N. America. Getting time off as a professional airline pilot is the hardest part! My team skills include 1st Aid & CPR, licensed radio operator, being on a search & rescue team for 5 years, weather forecasting using airline prognostic charts, and fixing climbing knots with cold fingers in a hurry. PM me if your interested in mountaineering together. Cheers!
