Full bars.

The morning routine. They get so grumpy if you try to rush the morning routine.

I see this and I think it looks like a colour blind christmas scene.

Surely any prestige associated with the “black card” in taken away when the chip is popping out and the card itself is being held together with painters tape. Oh the fun me and this card have had.

A lot of blue shrines in the rocks at the start of the hike.

Broderick and Ford heap on the enthusiasm to climbing Tyler.

We found a mountain hut, entered and then it went under seige.

Not liquid hot magma, but at least it bubbled.

The top ridge.

Clay type substance made downhill tough.

Tyler.

The pump house to keep the hotels water hot.

We found what we think used to be a spa, some number of years ago.
