Thanks for the great report, Tom. Congratulations on making the summit. I am sure your acclimation program, staying at Horseshoe Meadows two nights really helped.

I like your picture of the ice at the cables. I've added it to the Current Conditions thread.

Try to find some earplugs for sleeping during a windy night. I carry them on all my hikes.
