Skipping sleep and climbing Baldy in the moonlight just seemed like a good idea to Norma and I Friday night. It was very cool (actually, quite cold!) climbing Register Ridge with only the moon for a headlamp. We took our time with many layer and equipment changes through the night and the sun was already greeting us as we came down the west side of the bowl. At the hut we heard someone calling our names and it was none other than Lilbitmo, Brian, Liz and EnFuego! It was awesome meeting all of you!

hey, who needs sleep? truly, it might take me a couple days to catch up, but it was certainly worth it to miss some and take this midnight hike. it was so cool to hike by the light of the moon. then watching the sunrise and the colors in the bowl made Baldy the prettiest i have ever seen her look. thanx Dave G for another great adventure!
