Sam Page has just won the Frederick Albert Cook Award for the best California mountaineering blog. :) :wink: His links are very informative. He is on the San Gabriel Mnts message board a lot and also on Summitpost. I am sure it is just a matter of time before he is on our message board. He did a piece on the Skyline Back to Back Challenge already. (under Older Posts)

I nominate http://hikeeveryday.blogspot.com for the Hiking Addicts (not so) Annonymous Blog award. All the hiking "fools" that agree say AYE :)

Ok, here I am.

Thanks for the plug, Cy. But I'm afraid my award was as legitimate as Cook's first ascent of Denali . . .

Sam - most people on this board had not heard of the phony Albert Cook :)
I read about Will Gadd ice climbing 29000 feet of elevation gain in 24 hours at Ouray in Colorado. http://themountainworld.blogspot.com
