The end of the story: When Chris and I were turning off the highway to get to the trailhead at 3:30 am, we heard an eerily appropriate song on the XM Country station, it was "Mountains" by Lonestar. It goes something like this:
"There are times in life when you've got to crawl, lose your grip, trip and fall; When you can't lean on no one else that's when you find yourself; I've been around and I've noticed that walkin's easy when the road is flat, them danged old hills will get you everytime, yeah the good Lord gave us mountains so we could learn how to climb..."
Hope you find as much inspiration in it as we did :)

I'm so impressed with you two!! I can't believe that you summitted two 14ers in one trip! Sherman nearly killed us Michiganders...glad you guys made it back safely.
You are an awesome beginning knitter!!! Get over to S, S & S and get someone to show you how to purl. You will do great in your new teaching role. I am proud of you and I miss you.
Love,
