Well I leave tommorow morning at 4:30am, and the climb is Friday, we'll see how my dad reacts to the altitude, that looks to be the biggest player in the success, though safety is #1 as niether of us have ever done this before and the weather can change so quickly, especially on a hot, unstable summer afternoon...  |

Wow !!!
Great to hear your getting out there to do that !
Take some pics for us poor saps here stuck at our desks !
What elevation are you climbing around, do you plan on summiting, and are you going with a guide service?

Sense their sever update their photo gallery went down, I know exactly what that is like. Ive been through it with this site, it totally sux ! go to the how to section if you get lost about how to post pics and stuff. let me know if you run out of storage space, I think you have a max of 10 mb, but I can easily give you 100 or more. Heres the link on HOW TO post and upload the pics http://www.techsourceconsultants.com/smf/index.php?topic=256.0 |

I've uploaded a bunch, but if you triple my current space I can fit them all... (I havent quite uploaded half of the pics) It says I have like 40,000 space and I've used 39,450 and one more photo puts me over 40,000. 100,000 would probably do it (Im loading like 110 pictures) EDIT: ALso, I've tried replying to the social security thread with a post that would have one of you guys standing in front of the JH tram...but can't get the image to get on the page, how do you do that? |

Jay, I'm trying to find the config page that allows me to bump your quota, so give me a few to do that. As for posting image, right click on the image and if your using Firefox then click copy "Image Location" and then paste it between  or click the img button and then paste. if your using IE then right click on the image, and go to properties and highlight the image location and copy it, then paste as described above. Going to find your quota now. |
