Training Climb One

Okay, I wouldn't exactly call it a "climb". Vermont's distinctive Camel's Hump is more of a hike. But we DID use ice axes on the way up and even, for a short stretch, crampons. Mostly we slogged along in snowshoes. But JohnTheClimbingMentor and I appeared to have the mountain to ourselves. It was a beautiful day, with hazy views from New York to New Hampshire. And a great opportunity to learn a few things about mountaineering stuff. Thanks John. And thanks heaps to Sarah for hanging out with Fergus and Norah so I could have this opportunity. When you add it all up, our debt to Sarah and Todd is enormous. Thanks.
