Scrubbles cracks me up!

John, just make a few 1-pitcher routes and call them FTS1, FTS2, FTS3, etc. Then you can publish a guidebook for "cragging around basecamp" days.

Glad you are still around these parts posting up and showing how much there still is out there for the hardcorp adventurer.

I'll look forward to your inevitable success.

Failure to summit beats failure to return, every time!

Don't worry about the summit, John. It looks like your having a great time, and your returning alive to tell the tale.

hey there say, johnkelly... wow, thanks for the next set of pics...

say, i'll agree with avery, here, too...

always good to be safe, and savor the enjoyment of challanges, and know that
you have 'the next opportunity' for the
next phase of it all, waiting for you...

My friends and I didn't summit Denali in 2003.
We did climb the hard part of the West Rib, but
heavy snow thwarted our efforts above.
But after three weeks in tents, we all came back
with all of our digits, and still the best of friends!
