Aaron  : (Today, 03:14 PM) No business will lose money if this site goes down. Only the longing by many for their hourly RMNP fix is suffered. Trusting the cloud to store your documents or to store customer data, as well as critical daily/hourly operational tasks to the cloud is a completely different beast.

Just thinking of a trip I did up to Andrews Tarn with Fireman Jim on July 1st of 08 and found this picture of Jim's that shows me crossing the crux of the climb. It is the steep snow just below the Tarn and we had to get on the rock across the snow I was crossing:

That was a good day for memories Ed! We'll be back out this summer after missing the Park for only the 2nd time since 1992 last year.

Here is a slideshow of the rest of the day with Ed: A Stroll in the Park with Igloo Ed
