JLP, it offers an interesting perspective of the hustle and bustle of the Nose, what clearly sicks out in my mind was looking right and down into the camp 6 area and visualizing the drama that occurred there during that stormy October in 2004, it was a very eerie and somber perspective.

We actually dispatched most pitches rather quickly, however I do recall Tim Klien blazing past us with a huge grin on his face while out for a few hours with Jim and Conner Herson.

Our longest lead was the last pitch where we left Mediterraneo and established a new ladder (their ladders up top were horrendous to say the least, the likes of heads in holes).

Ephemeron looks like a great line (even with being so close to the Nose). And that off-the-ground A4 pitch is probably real scary A4.
