Mt. Hood





















I climbed Mt. Hood twice this year. Once with the Scouts from the Yakima 3rd Ward and once with my kids. I enjoyed the physical challenge of mountaineering. I am not into life threatening climbs. I just want to work to get to high places. I like hiking and backpacking and enjoying these activities almost as much as mountaineering. I like the problem solving that technical climbing presents. I also like rock climbing, technical caving and ice climbing. I am not a particularly talented climber, but I am not climber to prove anything. Rather, I like the difficulty that mountaineering presents.
