Good read! I must admit that I said a little "awwe" when you said you had no view, picture, or person to congratulate you. So, to you my friend, congratulations on a successful climb.
Thanks Alec, those are nice words indeed. Good luck on your hoped for job, it'd be a nice one to get. I've never skied Mt Hood Meadows but I do have some nice stuff near where I'm living now in Utah.
I really wouldn't recommend a solo climb any time of the year. My solo was a fluke and just one of those situations that worked out that one time. Rock fall in September is a real concern. I'd recommend talking to one of the Mount Hood guide service people as they may not guide at this time of the year.

Re: Great ReadThank you, I appreciate your comments. I'm glad I wrote that at the time I did the climb since so many details are lost with the passing of the years.
