August 7, 2020 - The Ascent

---

How did this second time up the mountain for me come to be? My cousin Chris called me and said that in two years he was about to have one of those milestone birthdays and that he wanted to climb the mountain where my father's (his uncle's) plane crashed so many years ago. It wasn't much longer that his brothers, my cousins, Erik and Gunner signed on. And then Gunner's son Kyle and Erik's sons, Joshua and Adam. Add two very capable guides Sonny and Cody, our ascent party was created!
