Yesterday, Jenny and I climbed South Early Winters Spire with the Mountaineers. For Jenny, it was her graduation climb: She has officially finished all the requirements for the Basic Alpine Climbing course. I still need a successful glacier climb (but I’ve had two more successful rock climbs now than required).

Another great day in the mountains, spent with amazing people.
