14 hours until we're on the road, and we're down to the final preparations for the climb! Food shopping, cooking prep, gear organizing, checking the weather "one more time," etc...
NOAA Saturday forecast: "A 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon.
Mostly sunny, with a high near 61. East southeast wind 6 to 11 mph becoming
north northwest in the afternoon."
The latest trail reports say that the upper mountain is still snowy. Ice axe and crampons are mandatory. Our team is ready for the challenge... here we go!
