On Baldy. 7:20 AM 10,500 feet on switchbacks on way to mine. Chris has my stuff and is sweating. I've been sucking down water and the climb feels easier to me today. Lots of rosaries.
Breakfast at 10,700 feet with the other Beverly Hills crew at the mine hut overlooking a beautiful vista. Took a group pic with 622-H2 and us (622-M2).
11,500 feet. Almost there. I plan to borrow Danny's cell phone to call Michele.
11,800 feet. Above treeline (almost). Above snowline. Stopping for sunblock.
10am at top of Baldy! 12,441 feet. Chris in distress. I took his stuff for the last 200 feet.
At Baldy, tried to call Michele but no service. Sent text msg to Michele "At 12,441 feet Chris and I are fine. See you in a week"
Can you believe it? I ran into Brian Jordan up here on Baldy! He is here for 3 months working on logistics.
