Tom, that looks like just a great time had by all. I especially liked Chris's honesty about his fear during the Final 400 and his emotions on the summit after several failed prior attempts. Lotta good people in the Sierra - as much as you're up there, your list of life-long friends will continue to grow exponentially!
Maybe I'll do the MR some day - I don't have an overpowering fear of heights, but I have a healthy respect for the splat-factor of a long fall. Maybe I'll take a few local rock-climbing classes before next year's trip out there. The E-ledges get my vote for the next Whitney cable install . . .
