    Great photo Stew! The Lady talks of climbing the Grand so it is appropriately on our "to do" list. History tidbit is that a banjo picker named Billy Briggs was the first to do a ski descent from the summit.

    Thanks, Ski, but I clearly can't take credit for the composition of this photo.

    The summit of the Grand Teton is indeed a worthy goal. We went up on Glen Exum's classic ridge. It was a cold outing with thunder, lightning and graupel before dawn, and then light snow on and off all day. In the photo, I am rappeling the normal descent route to the right of Spaulding's route.
