I Finally Made It

[Michael Pancier]

After years of trying to get a permit and after a grueling 8 mile hike up slippery rock faces, steep sand dunes, jagged rock edges, at high altitude with a heavy pack, I made it to the Wave ... the big enchilada .... it was painful but worth it. What an amazing place. Weather cooperated in that all the snow that had been in the bowl a month ago melted.

So here's yours truly .....:D
