Mt Audubon

We had the intestinal fortitude, I just had problems with the intestines. Shooting pains most of the day kept me from the summit. Dan didn't want to go alone. So after doing the fun parts we descended. Was rough turning back so close to the summit and with the difficult parts dispatched. But my pain threshold was reached at that point.

Oh, and the fall on to the spire of rock, bruising me, didn't help matters.

Still a great day in the alpine, even if the wind tried blowing us off the Southeast Ridge a few times.





















Dan could have used his ice ax and we both could have used our crampons. Next time, I'm gonna cut down on the garlic.
