I notice you've been putting a lot of work into building this trip report, and it's looking great. Unfortunately, someone has posted literally over 40 trip reports in the past few days, and your trip report is already buried among the new submissions, and I'm afraid it may not get the notice and appreciation it deserves.
When you're all done, you might consider saving it and then copying and pasting from the editing page as a new submission. I'd be happy to help you with that process since you're pretty new to the site and since, as one of the site admins, I know the tools and tricks pretty well.
Anyway, I hope you might find this helpful, and keep up the great wok!

Re: Suggestion
@Bob thanks the feedback and suggestions. I didn't re-post it because by the time I was finished I was ready to be done with it, as fun as it was to write. My target audience, in addition to friends and family, is anyone who is thinking about climbing the West Ridge in a day so hopefully they will find it by searching for Prusik. When I was planning this trip there was no single source of information that answered all my questions about climbing Prusik in a day, so one of my goals was to aggregate all the information I discovered during my own research to make it easier for others planning their own West Ridge climb.
Fair enough. I had recommended that it least be featured on the front page, and I'm glad to see that happened. You put a lot of work in and deserve some recognition for it.

Very nice
Nice trip report with lots of useful information and photos. I have done Prusik Peak approaching from both Snow Lakes and Stuart Lake trail heads. Can't say one is better than the other, just different.
I love this kind of "day trip," I like it. The only thing I disagree with in your wonderful report is the UNJUSTIFIED PROMULGATION of TRI-CAMS as useful, timely, efficient PROTECTION! Just spend an extra 100 dollars for a couple of link-cams and avoid the walk out in the dark. :D

Death marchYour friend thinks 10 miles each way is a death march? Tell him to avoid Wyoming in general. ;) Great report!
