Less...
Unfortunately, Keith and Greta are not going to be able to make the trip to Colorado. I was really hoping to see you guys get your first 14er, but I guess it will have to wait. You'll get there eventually, I'm sure...

Go Go Go!

"It's really, really good to be here. Just a nice, peaceful afternoon. You sort of stare at this wall of gear that you know you have to tie into and start organizing, but really, you're just not in the mood when you first get here. You just sort of want to sit, sort of soak in the surroundings, and just sort of try to appreciate the magnitude of the project that we've come to do. And also, I think, more importantly, appreciate how fortunate we are to be here. Billions of people that live on this planet -- for some reason, we did something right in a former life that we're here to enjoy these gorgeous mountains."
