Mt Borah - Southwest (Chicken-Out) Ridge
Mt Borah's south west ridge
Chicken-Out-Ridge
I was reluctant to waste any more cartilage on another climb up (no, down) Mt Borah's southwest (Chicken-Out) ridge but had agreed to go on one more trip (#28) with my daughter Anne and her friend Kyndal. Anne and Kyndal have been friends from first grade through their graduation from college in 2010. For most of their senior year in New York City they trained on the 6 floors of stairs in their apartment and after graduating in 2010 they were ready to come home and climb Idaho's highest peak - Mt Borah 12,662'. Due to circumstances beyond our control we had to postpone our trip until this summer - Aug 21, 2011.
