Ptarmagin

Rainy weekend, now its bueatiful out!
Climbed the cooler on ptarmagin on sunday in full on clouds, and rain, and had a total blast doing it. Its the perfect climb to do solo or with a friend in a few hours from Anchorage. A quick bike in, fun snow climbing, a good summit scramble and decent scree for the descent. Snow Conditions were thin to say the least, less snow now than a month later last year.

Went back tonight with Joe, and had a blast again, way mellower many stops to goof off...
Was a bueatiful night in Anchorage.. feels like fall is creeping in...
Biking on the way out I was in the big ring on the sheep really getting on it.. when I look up to greet a huge bull moose with a double wheel lock up skid, made the stop about 15 feet from the tips of his enormous rack. sometimes those adrenaline shots come when you least expect it
