"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."

Route CommentIf you do the route in the summer after mid-June or so, you need only camping gear, i.e. no snow shoes, ice axe, crampons or GPS. Camping at Sand Beach Lake is very pleasant as well and the lake is even suitable for swimming in mid- to late-summer.
