Climbing Mt. Juneau

I was crossing my fingers that we would have a break in the weather at some point during the week that would give us a long enough window to make a push for the summit of Mt. Juneau. Yesterday was that day.  It's a climb that is dangerous to begin with, and nearly impossible to do in wet, rainy conditions.  Thus, with our window open, we pushed hard early, and we're able to summit at a little over 3500 feet in a bit under 3 hours. I sweated my face off, soaked through two shirts, was freezing at the top (38 degrees with snow on the summit), but came across some seldom seen jungle friends and challenging obstacles...

Can you see the Mountain Goats?

Today we get in a small 6 seater plane, which I'm terrified about, to fly to glacier national bay for the next three days.  I'm crossing my fingers I will be able to find a spot in the tiny town with wifi so I can post. “Memory believes before knowing remembers.
