Great write up, and congrats on the climb!!

[OlympicMtnBoy]

Thanks, sounds like quite the experience! It must have been a big mental hit to find your cache gone on the summit push, way to keep heading up (and making it back down safely)!

 

I love reading about these sort of big independent expeditions!

[Stefan]

impressive. especially after your surgery!

 

That camp 2 swing in temperature is crazy! I have been there and know what you mean.

looks the trip of a lifetime - estimated price tag?

[JasonG]

Whoah.

 

You said your plane partially crash landed? Do tell.

 

You're right, that is most definitely worth the read. Strong work!

[Kushrocks]

Yep, here is the link to the plane we were supposed to be on skidding off the runway.
