Re: Snow on Sherman or Democrat
I got you, buddy! These are from January, which is technically after September. You can buy me dinner later.
Good luck with the doc' visit! Hope it's just a weird rash.

Here's a photo of Sherman with snow on it.
“There are two kinds of climbers: those who climb because their heart sings when they’re in the mountains, and all the rest.” - Alex Lowe
"There have been joys too great to describe in words, and there have been griefs upon which I cannot dare to dwell; and with those in mind I say, 'Climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are nought without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste, look well to each step, and from the beginning think what may be the end.'" - Edward Whymper

Here's another one of Sherman with snow on it......Looks treacherous. What class of snow climb would that be? What about avy danger?

Throwing the bone for the dog I see two passing lights
Well, I wonder where that driver's bound
Is there someone, somewhere, someway out there that I've not found"
