This blog entry is being written from 11,877 feet above sea-level and transmitted over the air via the magic of GPRS. (my phone has awesome signal from up here - probably because just about every cell phone tower in Utah Valley is within line-of-sight from here)
The hike up here is strenuous. The last few miles are definitely the hardest part of the hike. My butt hurts worse than a drunken sailor in san Francisco (they have uncomfortable bar stools over there)
There is another peak to the north of here that is slightly higher - up until 1970 this south peak was listed as the highest peak, but by then the trails already went up to here. If we really wanted to prolong this trip by a few hours, we could head over there, but I will save that trip for when I am actually in shape.
I’ll post some pictures later.

This comment is being made from 4,564 feet, or whatever the elevation of provo is. And my butt hurts too… time for a new chair.
