"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Route Climbed: Olallie Butte Trail Date Climbed: Multiple10/6/01 - Great Autumn day for hiking. Nice trail and we only saw one other party on it all day. Great views of Hood and Jefferson and some fun crags up top to play around on.
7/17/05 - Hiked with my girlfriend. Hot day in the 90's. Windy and cold up top though. Tried to descend fast and I think it is going to cost her several toenails. Oh that sucks. Only downside to the day. Great views of 9 stratovolcanoes from Broken Top to Rainier.
