8/27 3 day holding pattern

We have decided to spend a second night at Camp Muir due to high winds. Last night's high gust cam around 0100 and blew 83 mph. Luckily we are all safe and sound hunkered in the hut up here practicing the alpine cower technique. With an improving forecast tomorrow we saddle up the ton tons and head out to see how high we can get. And I thought... They smelled bad... On the outside!
