Trip: Sahale - Sahale Arm
Date: 8/9/2008
Trip Report:
So many men have fallen
So many more must die
Cut down like wheat beneath a scythe
And though our limbs may weary
Of ripping, slashing, cleaving blows
We face an endless host of foes
How heavy this axe
Burden carried from birth
Wrought in stygian visions
By the gods of the earth
Upon the hallowed mountain
The gods convene
To mourn the death of our ancient queen
Keepers of sacred fire
Awaken from your sleep
Drink from the cup of memory
How heavy this axe
Burden carried from birth
Wrought in stygian visions
By the gods of the earth
2.2 pounds.
we hiked up the arm, hung out at the glacier, got snowed on, whimpered back down after deciding no views+snowy rock made it not worth climbing up Sahale with the lowered fun factor (totally socked in and snowing on us). spent some quality time in the lil taco tent, waiting for things to abait, but they never did.
good times with a good friend, better than sitting around the house all weekend! Shout out to KingsMM whom we met up there.
