OK, so last weekend I bailed on mountaineering on account of a faulty weather report. This week the weather report is better and it is currently gorgeous, so I'm going. John from search & rescue is coming to pick me up and we're going to attempt to climb either Redcloud Peak (14,034'), Sunshine Peak (14,001' - the lowest 14er in North America!), or both.

There may be some issues with getting to the trailhead on account of the snow, etc. But we'll see what we can do. It's also probably more of a climb than I'm in shape for, so getting both seems unlikely. But if the weather isn't crap and the road is open to the trailhead, I should be able to summit one of them. I've got the ice axe, snow shoes, crampons, poles, beacon, αSV jacket and bibs, etc. All the fun stuff that I haven't gotten to use in a long time. Very looking forward to this trip, even if I wimp out and can't make it to the summit.
