This 360-degree panorama 2020 video is a treasure to watch. Maybe a week before this summit, Steve and Stacy led me to Pollock Mountain’s summit, also 9,200′.

Brutal, driving winds made it unsafe to stand.

Stacy stayed about 100′ below the summit to prevent any chance of being blown off the top. Seriously.

Unable to get a 360-panorama from Pollock. Yet exceptionally grateful to finally summit Pollock.

Steve and i stayed atop Pollock for about five minutes. We could safely handle the wind while sitting, but the wind chill was too much to handle.

We dressed for cold, windy conditions. But the wind chill was vicious. We remained (and remain) grateful for our five minutes at the top.

Thin place confirmed.

Side note: Poor audio quality is trumped by Nature’s magnificence.

Haven’t summited three of the four mentioned and recorded here.

Why?

Because it would be wise to go with someone who’s previously done it.

Note: Scarier than finding your way to the summit is finding your way back down the mountain. This is lost on everyone who’s never summited or only summited an easy peak with a clearly visible trail. Swiftcurrent Mountain (8,200′) is an example of easy and clear.
