Wish I was on Denali. Congratulations to Tina!

here is a quote about Brad Washburn, forever associated with Denali because of his pioneering photography and the West Buttress route.

Washburn had told us that you build igloos because they don’t flap in the wind, and “because you have to go outside to find out what the weather is doing.”
Jonathan Waterman, In The Shadow of Denali page 35

Ran into Tina's "sister" at the WPS on Friday. She was heading up to the North Ridge of Lone Pine Peak. They've come a long way in a relatively short period of time.

Congratulations Tina.

Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

Read the post 9 up...

Here's a link to a movie that almost completely ignores the fact that Barbara Washburn was the First Woman to summit McKinley on the expedition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQJfvgtobWA&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I've been reading her memoir.
