Mount St. Helens

Yesterday Travis Moore, Mike Anders and I climbed Mount St. Helens which is something I've been wanting to do for a while. The opportunity came up rather suddenly so there was no time to get some training hikes in (unfortunately). Therefore it was a little tougher than it should have been (I'm understating this). It was a great experience however and once we got over the rim of Helens it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

We left at 5:30am, drove to Helens, started our hike at about 7:45am. We arrived at the summit at around 1:15pm and then made it back to our car by 5pm. It was a long, tiring day but it was worth it. Here are a few pics, i posted a bunch more on facebook.
