I just got back from a Waiex adventure to Yellowstone National Park and uploaded a video. I wanted to do something to honor Jeremy and Mike and decided to dedicate this video to them. There is a moment of reflection at the end of the video.

Jim,

I really enjoyed your video. It's all these special trips that allow us to pay back our loved ones for all the time we spent alone building.

Fly safe!

Thanks Jim for sharing this wonderful adventure with us. Hope I get to see you again at Oshkosh this year if you are able to make the trip.

I just flew the Waiex to Lone Pine and climbed Mount Whitney in a day. This video is a combination of a flying video and hiking video. Hope you like it.

Thanks for sharing, It made me revisit my trip to the top almost five years ago on 10/10/10. It was a spur of the moment trip my cousins and I went on after she got divorced she felt the need to clear her head. Even though we left at O dark thirty, it wasn't enough, we were hiking at night at the last portion. Even though we made good time on the way up we made it to the trail peak right on the verge of the go/no go deadline, 2 of us were ok with turning around, but Nina wouldn't hear it. I'm glad she persuaded us to push on and summit.
I was paranoid about not having enough water so my pack was way too heavy in hindsight. There was quite a bit of snow and I couldn't have made it without the trekking poles. Whenever I do it again, I'm sure I'll be better prepared.
