I was duly impressed when I saw you log this ascent on listsofjohn.com in January, without even knowing about the lock incident and your husband :-) A deeply sweet success - a solo, hard-earned, difficult, third-try calendar winter summit and an engaging, well-told story. Props.
Thanks Teresa! That's one of the nicest comments I've ever received and I did note in the past and was impressed that you were the first person to log Utah's 13000 footers on LOJ.
ZeeJay, you've done it again: set a bar so high there may never be anyone to match it. Yet it's something I've come to expect of you whenever you strap on those skis. Wonderfully written, too.
Thanks Larry! I didn't realize this before, but Fess Parker played both Daniel Boone and Davy Crockett, so the dude has got to look like both of them equally.

Made me smile ....Hope my comment is not too off the wall, but the dude in the
"wood splitting" video looks more like Davy Crockett than
Dan Boone.
Well done, Judy! Sometimes ... when you want something done right, you GOTTA do it YOURSELF. :- )
