Good luck Jim. What a grand adventure.
Oddly enough I was thinking of this route (not of climbing it myself of course) a few weeks ago.
Have a great time. Post up when you can.

Come on mouse, you know Bestoluks a walkup. Besides, since it's the 666th highest peak, the lines of climbers on it are atrocious. Half of the Exum Guides are there right now.

Best of luck to both teams. A slight regret though that the old men of the mountain are not to be the ones to solve one of the greatest alpine problems on earth. What an inspiration that would be.

Enjoy it man, even the suffering. By now you probably know that better than most if not everyone on this planet.

Very cool! Go kick ass!
Watch out for the third street tunnel, you'll think you are a mole.
Stay light, not solid!

Best of luck to all.
Didn't realize the highest point reached since BITD was 2000' lower.
Puts your awesome effort into perspective.

Best of luck Jim. If you are successful--names in the guide book.....--you can start counting your age backward, or so I've heard.
