Jump-roping in shorts on Mt Hood summit

I was joined on the summit today by pals BWB Brian Samore and 1-st timer Rayn Ryan Balfour for a photo shoot of various wild and crazy antics. We arrived on top at 7am, 6 hours after departing Timberline Lodge.

It was a delightful night for climbing, with near-full moon until the dramatic moonset, calm air, shooting stars, Milky Way, volcano shadow, sunrise over the Cascade Range.

Click link below if you dare to see photo and film proof of the scenery, costumes, effigy props and yoga poses these nutty climb partners of mine did this day. It was my 25th Mt Hood summit climb ...but my first in shorts, and first with a jump-rope.
