Registration is on! (Plus some links so sweet posts)
August 17th, 2009Hey Everybody!
I am SO excited about STN in Jackson and our registration release! Psyched to see you here! Here’s a brief update.
I’m back in Jackson Hole. After a couple hours sleep yesterday, went into the mountains to climb the Grand Teton. We started at 1 AM from the Lupine Meadows Parking Lot in Grand Teton National Park. By the time we were 2 hours in (at Garnet Meadows) we were walking through a blanket of snow! The night before we took off (which was the same afternoon I arrived from the drive from California) there was a storm came through between 7 pm and 11 pm and completely changed the conditions on the mountain. In other words, when I went to sleep for a few hours that night, the mountain was in one condition, when I woke up, it was in another entirely, but I didn’t know it! Therefore, we planned on one set of gear, including lighter weight shoes, which wasn’t appropriate for the climb…
The hike was so beautiful and eveything was flowing, so we continued on our approach optimisitically and by the time we made it to the Lower Saddle our feet were just about frozen. After a few minutes of reality testing, we decided to rest a few minutes and head back down. It was a beautiful walk in the mountains.
