Do tell!

And I'm no fool! I already reserved a room at the ARK!

But that still does not mean I'm coming...

If there is enough interest, I just might try to organize a post hike gathering somewhere. I'm listening.....

People of your stature and experience will be in demand to help reach that goal.

Needless to say we expect many folks to be perfectly content to do peaks that do not share these criteria. Worthy peaks such as Noonmark, Hurricane, Hopkins, Jay, Wakely, Pillsbury, Jo, Boundary Peak, Gooseberry Mountain and the like.

Great photo of Tom, Neil. Thanks for the laughs.

I'll take a high peak, I have a list I am working on.

I'm working on my Mt. Jo 12-month list, so that might be my choice. Just bagged September last week.

I already claimed Mt. Jo but I'll be looking for a guide if you are interested.

I called the ARK today around 130pm and they finally retured my call. They are all full for that weekend. I guess they filled the last room this morning. So I guess we all need to find accomodations somewhere else or share a room with others.
