mt. hood
our pal sarah came in town for a long weekend and the first activity on the (joren's) agenda was to wake up at midnight, drive to hood and start climbing at 2 am. it was hard, but it was fun and the gorgeous sunrise was worth the effort of climbing up scree and ice fields.
we didn't summit, but still got to sled down a good part of the mountain. i have a few snow raspberries on my back and a handful of pictures to remember the fun. i also used crampons (pointy metal ice shoes) for the first time.
here, sarah is looking gorgeous and i look more like a moutain turd. sarah was a great sport and let me do the majority of complaining. bless her heart.
