"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Rose DomeJustin, Kessler, Shaylee, and I headed to the Rose Domes (south of Rabbit Ears Pass) to do some rock climbing. We were hoping to do Spotted Rose as well, but it was occupied so we climbed Raspberry Topping. Kessler and I climbed it three times and Shaylee and Justin climbed it twice.
At first it was shaded, but then it was in the sun. We were thinking of heading for Spotted Rose, but in the full sunlight we decided to head for Steamboat for some ice cream. Even at 9000 feet, it was hot.
On the way there, we saw the biggest fox that we have ever seen.
