The climb went off almost without a hich, much to Mike´s regret forgot the summit flag at the hut about 15 minutes up the climb. Mike blazed back down and was back with us in 20ish minutes. In the mean time the ¨Mountain Goat Jer¨ shouldered Mike´s pack and continued on.
The last part of the climb was alot of fun we had steep snow and a nice little rock scramble at the top. After we reached the top I thought it was time to sit, but the Sherpa and Mountain Goat took off to ¨look around¨. As I laid on the ground hoping to have my heart slow down from red line to an idle a couple of other groups started to arrive at the top.
After a couple of quick summit photo´s we headed down and out.
Over all I´d say the sufferfest went very well.
