Hijo de la gran puta! Thanks for that!

All the pics are there for me, running Firefox. Bluebird skies, toothy grins, perfect granite, ice fields galore... Wonder what the temps were like on the summit?

What's next? Keep the Chilean expression in mind: "La vida en un sorbo!"

Nice, Dave. Good to see the monkeys sending all year, all over the planet.

Picassa is lame. I can host the pics for you on my server, if you like. No resizing or other BS, etc. Shoot me email if you like.

Yawn! Dave Turner hikes another crazy mountain in bad weather. How about a trip report where he gets massively stoned with a handicap dude and goes bouldering?
Nice job homie.

Lost crampon, thin ice, storm bearing down - great near-epic. And holy crap, that Armadillo Tower is beautiful. Thanks for the TR and for Lambone's resizing pics - was having a nutty just seeing every 7th the first time through.

Great pics and trip report. Thanks for postin up! Nice to see some of that rock down there. Armadillo reminds me of the stuff I've been on in the eastern sierra.
