"I'm feeling lucky" distorts the colors, but the contrast is beautiful. Compare to the cover of the Mt. Blanc album
Arya, me, and Kudron (left to right) at the top of Disappointment Cleaver
The Disappointment Cleaver lived up to its name this day
I really had no idea how funny looking all those colored ropes and that silly striped hat would make me. Awesome.
Arya's departure from the mountain. Snow is delicious, eh?
Boiling water in the hut in preparation for attempt #3
Sometime between 6 and 6:30 AM at the summit. The winds were strong enough to blur the image, though I don't imagine our shadows were that much clearer
The colors!
Just below the summit. Ryan from Boulder and Joe from San Diego took these pictures. They did the whole ascent at once, starting at 8 PM the previous night.
Looking down into the crevasse. That shadow may be me.
That might be the goofiest picture I've ever seen
A few guys - Mark and Ryan, maybe? - ahead of us on the traverse. They helped snap some photos for us.
The crevasses were deep, but the crossings were quite secure
The crevasse field above DC. This is why we had to traverse to Emmonds.
