I'm very impressed that you've done them once, let alone more than once. This particular run sounds joyous and the pictures are beautiful. You're lucky!! BTW, I Perpetuem was one of the freebies I got from Hammer and I used it for my tempo run on Thursday. It was just like you said, it has a great "pick me up". I'm ordering more.

I feel so mentally invigorated up above the treeline. What I would give to be able to live there! <br /><br />Awesome awesome pictures. Doing some math though - you started over 10000 feet?
