This climb has become a New Year's tradition. Here's reports from previous years (when I did a report, anyway): |

With a clear sky and high pressure, Idaho gets pretty cold in the winter. This night was a lot like that. Our group was pretty bundled up as we started out just a bit after Zach finally got there, his car aglow in Christmas lights (which, from a distance, look a bit like the light bar on a cop car!). Steve was under doctor's orders to not exert himself, so we caught this photo of him just before he turned around. Headlamps in the background. |

When we got to the top, my camera was not happy with the high-pressure temps. It was COLD. But we were, as usual, a happy group of celebrants. The Boilo seemed to add to the occasion. What a great year! Hoping for another in 2016. |
