 After every storm the sun will smile; for every problem there is a solution, and the soul's indefeasible duty is to be of good cheer. William R. Alger   
 “...just the bare bones of a name, all rock and ice and storm and abyss. It makes no attempt to sound human. It is atoms and stars. It has the nakedness of the world before the first man – or of the cindered planet after the last”  — Fosco Maraini -

Descent on Austerity.
Descent on Austerity.Todd Reeves carefully laying down a precise line off the north face of Austerity Mountain in Canada."But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free.— William Arthur Ward

Mega panorama in the Columbia mountains, BC, Canada.
Mega panorama in the Columbia mountains, BC, Canada.This view drops my jaw and sparks my imagination every time I see it. During a one day traverse Greg Franson, Jake Blogach, Chris Davenport, Jamie Harris and I went from Mt. Sir Sanford on the left, behind Black Friar (to it's right) and under and around Austerity Mountain and Adamant (towards the right of the panorama). Unfortunately we had to complete  it in a near white out. Due to the strong navigation abilities of Greg combined with his knowledge of the area, we navigated some very challenging terrain to a warm hut four valleys away. We arrived tired and relieved just at dark after a very big day in the mountains.
