PaulO Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Climb: South Sister - South Ridge Date of Climb: 9/3/2005 Trip Report: I just heard about this from my cousin and had to post it. My Uncle Larry (who started me hiking and climbing in Boy Scouts nearly 40 years ago) along with one of his sons, a son in law and three grandsons went up the South Sister on Labor Day weekend. What is noteworthy about this expedition is Larry was 82 years and 10 months old when he once again made it to a summit he is very familiar with!!! WOW! The proof is in the pictures: Ben and Larry checking out the trail Larry taking a break getting up on the ridge Three generations of Schmidts on the summit!
