"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Siren songHave topped out this pass twice now trying to summit Agassiz... foiled by weather and late starts both times. One day I'll try a third.
Views of the Dusy are inspiring, and even better with a little scramble up the mountainside. Even the wildflowers and mountain views on the approach alone are worth it.

First foray into the High SierraHiked on July 28, 2015, on the way to may unsuccessful attempt on Agassiz. The trail was spectacular and made the journey well worth it despite my failing to summit Agassiz.

Fast TrailGets you to a lot of places, fast. Sucks when you have to park a mile down the road though when the overnight parking lot is full!
