"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Govt Peak RaceI first climbed Government Peak as a back-of-the-pack participant in the 2007 Government Peak Race. It was a long, long way up for a neophyte to mountain racing. I've been up a few times since. Most pictures on the main page were taken during a May 2011 ascent.
