Author's Comments:

The memories of the day I spent hiking up and down this beautiful mountain will forever remain some of the most cherished of my life. I am eternally grateful to have had the opportunity to spend a day standing on the summit of this sacred mountain. And I am equally thankful to my friend, Lance Evans Frazier, who cordially carried my favorite cameras to the top in exchange for his pub tabs.
