"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

No views :(Nice hike up to Spray Park and up to the saddle to tag Hessong and Pleasant. It would have been nice to see something except clouds though. Couldn't see much more than about 200-300 feet the entire time. Guess I will come back and do the loop to get Fay Peak included.
