well gee I hope you are not the only one who read it!
I just think it is a very well written account and it actually can teach some others at the same time.
WOW, I feel like an under achiever for sure.
Thanks Tazzer.

I agree.
What struck me most was that seemingly obscure information (that Rainier's fumaroles are non-toxic) was made use of with such success. Just goes to show that no information is useless - if one is intelligent enough to make use of it.
Also, I never knew about a 'lake' in the middle of Rainier!
Edit: Tazz, I forgot to thank you for the link; it was a fascinating read.

What a great trip report and I am glad they both made it down safely.
What an ingenious way to melt snow. I hope if I get in a situation like that that I will have the same presence of mind.
