The text is good for giving a "feeling" for the route. I would like to do that traverse some day. I have a fair amount of experience with crappy-rock traverses, but I wonder if I have the right analogy.
You captured some great angles I've not seen from on the Bells. Nice work as usual Scott!
My boy Asa is four. What age did Kessler get into it and able to summit high peaks? I know a girl had summited all 14ers by age 7... Not that that is the plan, he is into hiking and scrambling already.

Another WinnerYour accounts are always succinct and enjoyable. Add to that, you always accompany the reports with lots of photos. Makes for a definite winner.

Yes; I think photos are more effective at telling a story than extra words. :) Thanks for the comments.

I'd guess that someday...We'll be hearing about Kessler ascending SICK routes on 8000ers. Once the climbing flame is ignited, it's hard to extinguish!
Congrats to you & Kessler, and thanks for sharing.
