alpine reminiscence

This time of year it seems like folks are either just settling in after a fall trip, or they are getting geared up for a winter trip. I'll be sticking around the valley this winter, but I thought I'd share a couple shots from my last trip. Janet Bergman, Doug Byerly, Doug Madara, and Jim Surette and I spent a few weeks in the Bugaboos this past August. We arrived right at the tail end of an incredible weather window---just enough time to check out the scene, do a warm-up route, and get psyched. Then, of course, the storms hit.
