Are you sure "fell through" is appropriate phase when hiking over crevasses? 😊

She'll forever be able to look at that and say she's been on top of it.

Looks like she's past Wall Street, she's making good time up the ridge.

I'm ignorant to this hike. What's the reason to be nervous?

It's a roped climb with 3,000' exposure

That's awesome. You'll have to ask her how cold it's been all morning.
