 | Comments: |
my first time up major and i am impressed. i could have done without the icy rocks but was able to go around. the summit is just plain outstanding! i then went over to straightback with ease and returned to the parking lot via brook trail. i called the wife on the way home to let her know i was on the way, only to have here tell me of her waiting at littleton regional to have her broken wrist repaired. she fell on ice on her morning walk. how ironic that i never even slipped once on mt. morgans ice. always something! |
