On Saturday we went hiking on Mount Si. Completed it in the fastest time yet, about 5 hours round trip. That includes a lunch break at the top. The weather was not as nice as last time. Very windy at the summit. I forgot my camera, but with all the cloud cover, there wasn't a view anyways. I was hoping when we reached teh summit we would get above the clouds but we were smack in the middle of them. In addition to all the phyiscal preparation, I've begun reading climbing books. Currently it's Into Thin Air by John Krakauer.
