Fun Shit?

This post is to shed some more light on the day that was Adrenalina. The name isn't just there to be cool or different it definitely gets your adrenaline pumping....in some ways more than others. See you on the next crazy adventure.

Mucho stinky stinky time!! Never leave the house without at least one whole roll of TP! This photo looks kind of painful but I think that is what made the second half of the trip a bit more humorous.
Looks like somebody is happy to be on top!
Good morning here is your ass being handed to you on a silver platter. If you look up through this gulley you canh see the moon still shining bright. The morning was perfect, no headlamps, a super bright moon, and then a perfect sunrise at elevation.
We were unable to see where we needed to go to get in so I did a bit of billy-goating on the summit ridge to find a snow line that went through. The rock was very unstable and breakable so rather than down-climbing I decided this was the safest way off the ridge.
This is the brilliant choice we made to get into our line. Think the adrenaline is pumping here? Dave led in and decided to take his skis off at the rocks in the middle and I ended up trying to walk through the rocks to the snow after I saw his efforts. Both ways were effective so all is well that ends well.
