Climbing is dangerous! Every year many climbers are broken, maimed, and killed. Don't be so foolish as to trust your life to what you see here. I'm not a guide and neither is this web site. If you don't know what you are doing or where you are going, please take a course or hire a guide!

Jens skinning toward Sitkum Spire. Somehow he stayed warm without a hat even though I was ensconced in fleece and Goretex.


Jens donning his skis on the summit.


Hmmm, I think that is me trying to ski on the middle Members of the Canadian group are on the right and left.


"Don't take a picture of me in these shorts!!"
Jens taking a break above Kennedy Hot Springs on the long walk out.


A cold beer at the car. Oh yes!
