EPIC


This is Mount Nebo. Conquered. Ryan and I started our trip about 7:30 Friday night. We hiked about two hours or so with good light, and then proceeded to conquer on by flashlight, crossing treacherous snow fields, losing the trail, finding it again, and finally setting up camp and eating dinner at about 11:30 on a ridge at 9,500 feet. Pictures 6 and 7 demonstrate the view from my sleeping bag at about 6:05 the following morning. Then we hiked three miles to the south summit without packs and returned home. Epic.
