I've had this on my desktop for a while... the most amazing moment in my life, hiking up to the top of the Great Pyramid very early in the morning before the tourists and guards came out (to avoid arrest!). Back in 1983, you could still pay off a few gents at the base $1 each and one of them would take you up it.
followed by the second most amazing moment in my life - I had this on my desktop for 6 months for so... the top of Mt Whitney, tallest point in the lower 48 states and one bitc* of a 22 mile hike! It was the hardest hike with a 55 lb pack I've ever done solo (taken 2 years ago)
