there is a lot of snow up there right now! How did you make it?

@Robfrenzy , it was not an easy venture, but we brought along our crampons to traverse the ice. It was for sure the most snow I had seen up there ever, well over 3-4 ft. in some areas and the cables used for the steep cliffs were covered for the most part.

Dang, are you dressed warm enough?

Do I sound like your mother yet?

Philly says:
@Grower&Shower, I was actually dripping wet from the climb to the top, the ice came on the way down plus this is still like spring weather compared to Minneapolis. These might have been sweaticles.

Oh and thanks for your concern.

this is awesome. I really hope we get to hang out again some time. we seem to have a pretty similar demeanor. keep in mind any time you want to visit Madison with the misses that we have a futon in a spare bedroom. just sayin.
