There are databases for skiing and alpine montaineering accidents where this end of day phenomenom is more quantitatively observed perhaps it was your way of balancing the statistics in honor of PI day. I have a feeling that JR would do what he does even if he did not get rewarded with an occasional treat. That said he and his local friends are good at working the crowd.Bob Lookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08711623028263000283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294467798390079933.post-85944365351130750312009-03-14T23:59:00.000-04:002009-03-14T23:59:00.000-04:00I climbed it this morning (3/14 Happy Pi Day!) wit...I climbed it this morning (3/14 Happy Pi Day!) with a group. Hadn't been since sometime as a teen. One of your number (young blond woman, friendly) gave us fair waring of the conditions as we started on our way. Despite the remaining ice and snow and the drizzle on the way back it was a great deal of fun. Slipped once (on a simple scramble on dry rock ironically) and hit an old wound (going to be feeling that for a few days). Fun scrambles and great views. Got to meet JR. He spotted me as an easy mark and I'm afraid he managed to make himself look so miserable he got a bit of my sandwich.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for looking over us. I'm sure I'll be back.Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11833370272511078366noreply@blogger.com
