First climbed when I was 14 or 15 years old. Reached the summit a second time on July 4th 1976.......It did it's best to kill us and we did our best to make it off alive. Between lighting storms, hidden water falls under foot and the such it is not a mountain to take lightly. I can clearly see our routes taken w/ your photos as they match mine. Have you ever been on top? I can remember traversing from the false summit along the ridge and looking down the other side....one H of a drop.
