5th anniversary of Mt. St. Helens climb

I'm not a big fan of living in the past, though I know I do so too much anyway. Today is the fifth anniversary of when I climbed up Mt. St. Helens. It is one of the coolest (if only to me) and most physically challenging things I have ever done. Thanks again, Dace, for helping make that dream a reality. A longer description of that escapade is located at: http://bradley.bradley.edu/~campbell/MSHclimb.htm. That event (and training for it), helped solidify my obsession with playing around in the mountains. Of course I would like to do it again - if only I could figure out how to train for altitude while living at only 600 feet above sea level! Maybe next time I could drag along the rest of the family...
