Perfect framing

Voted 10/10

I love this shot. The great shades of blue and the framing are really grabbing.

What the hell?

Voted 10/10

Are you doing on snow? I was not informed of this change! Heads will roll! ;- )

Didn't think you guys remembered what crampons were. This is a great pic. Wish I could give it 11.

Tell me the truth though, were you guys carrying a rack in your packs looking to do some rock pinnacle in the area??

	Voted 10/10	Yup, 3 more days. 'Tis on Saturday. Did I mention what an understanding wife I will have? We are deferring our honeymoon til January and I am going on a 5-day trip to the North Cascades 3 days after the wedding. (I'm going to owe her big, I know.) So what were you looking at instead of Eldorado? Johannesburg? Buckner?

"So what were you looking at instead of Eldorado? Johannesburg? Buckner?" Nothing as ambitious - some spire on the backside of eldo.

	Voted 10/10	Ah, nothing as ambitious for myself either. My annual hiking trip with a buddy from Massachusetts (Flanders on SP). We're headed to set up a basecamp and peakbag around Lake Chelan. Annie and my real honeymoon will come early next year, hopefully to New Zealand.

	Voted 10/10	Sorry, just got back. Did Cardinal and Saska Peaks in the Entiats. Bailed the last two days due to smoke from the fires the next valley over. Then did a smaller one around 11worth I need to do a page for. Fun stuff, TR coming for the annual Jenkins/Flanders hiking trip soon. :-)
