The horrible mountain
Climbed 75% of a certain mountain from Monday night to Tuesday morning. This was the last "beautiful view" of anything to be had. The fog, rain, and wind started from some point during the 7th stage. Couldn't get to the 8th.
This looks a lot better than I would look the next morning, mostly for fashion reasons. I was wearing Joel's jacket in the picture rather than the expensice but cheap plastic raincoat I'd get later on.I was completely un-prepared for this, so a special thanks to Joel and Jill who fed me and kept me watered.

I recommend checking the weather before trying it. I also recommend looking at it from a distance instead. The climbing is easy, but the monotony will get you. In a year, I may have forgotten enough to try again.
