Not too shabby. How were the glaciers looking up there?

[layton]

Challenger Glacier looked dandy, the glacier spilling down from Challenger 2+3 looks a bit dry, everything else was snowfields.

[G-spotter]

The winter line looks way cooler from the scurlock photos than it does close up,

 

That's probably the 5.4 route anyway

[Tom_Sjolseth]

INTENSE.

 

Nice write-up, Mike. I always enjoy your TRs.

Mikey,

 

J-Mart (Jason Martin) and I are chilling Peru-style, getting serious shits n giggles outta yer piece. Nice work. Two things: 1) You do look gay in that photo and 2)we think your helmet looks clienty. That said, way to slay on Spectre Peak. You da man!

Good job.

[layton]

JwexxMart,

Last I heard, "Chilling Peru-Style" meant lots and lots of unlubricated hardcore anal sex...and well, that's pretty clienty.

Nice work guys!

[marcus]

Nice hikin' and clamberin' gents!! I think maybe the Baby Jesus put that icky rock so far from home in order to protect his little children from it...hmm? Good show...

[Choada_Boy]

Why didn't you guys take the auto road to the summit?

[wayne]

There wasnt a reality-based one available at the time

[olyclimber]

Never let reality hold you back.

 

Good jorb with the climb and hike adventure wayne and mike.

[Marko]

Looks cool, congratulations!

[magellan]

Good Lord! I've been waiting for Laytonesque insanity and it's finally here!

 

The peak is not marked on my map, as far as I can tell. Is it the steep west wall leading up to a 7800+ plateau, just south and a little east of Phantom?

 

Roger Jung was a badass soloist.

[rat]

Wow Michael, you're the first stranger I ever sprayed on behalf for to my friends out here in Colorado!!

 

Nice climb and I am jealous. Glad the rock turned out to be solid. It just is deflating when a climb you've been jones-ing on after a while ends up being choss.

 

mike, doesn't this make you feel both afraid and kinda unclean?

 

nice job, guys. that rock looks great.

[wexxx]

Last I heard, "Chilling Peru-Style" meant lots and lots of unlubricated hardcore anal sex...and well, that's pretty clienty.

 

 

Does anyone else find this as funny as I do?

I find it very funny. Hysterical in fact.

 

Thanks Mike.

You're the best! Don't ever change.

Mean it,

Wex

[wayne]

maybe a little too fuuny?

[layton]

but not "Ha HA" funny if you know what I mean

[Dr_Flush_Amazing]

 

Layton is a very special person, with a crazy sense of humor. He may tease and kid around alot, but really Layton is a rather kind and sensitive guy. He has stong opinions, but is very loving. He is a fun guy to have around. He can lighten moods and bring laughter to any situation.

[DirtyHarry]

I envision that this picture and the above commentary shall adorn the outdoor signboard of Layton's first chiropracting practice. Or atleast be displayed predominantly in the waiting room. I believe that it would provide comfort for those going in for a proctology exam.

Good Job Mike & Wayne!!!!
