I climbed a mountain...a huge mountain...Piltriquitron, up to the summit at 7,440 feet. I know why they named it that...it does hang from the clouds....and on Friday morning around noon I was standing on the summit inside of the clouds whizzing by me with the wind.
The tiny dot in the center of this pic is Peter climbing up the mountain
This is Uma the dog that lives at the refugio..she hiked with us all the way up to the summit.
On the way back down, we slid on our butts down a steep slope along the peak...It was SO fun. Let me preface by saying wear waterproof pants when you climb a mountain.
SUMMIT
More pics of the entire hike to come..I am just exhilarated about climbing up a huge mountain that I can see from my window every morning...I feel accomplished. Good feeling.
