As we were told in the beginning, it’s not about the summit itself, but the summit within yourself. I felt like this on those days when I wanted to just stay in bed. I can just look back at the times in CO, WY, amd now AK and say hey we did it. It will effect my outlook on life and my plans at moving on.
