Wheeler peak. 9/4/16
Even with the 50 mph winds we pushed through to the 13,065' summit of Wheeler Peak in Great Basin National Park this weekend. The winds were bad and only 4 of our group of 15 made it to the top.

That's awesome! Glad you are feeling good enough to walk on it like that. It's like 8+miles.
Although, I don't think it was too hard of a hike, except for the elevation.
Good pic too. :)

Ya. It isn't too bad of a hike. Little rough coming down with all the uneven amd jagged rocks, but starting to feel pretty good again. Here in a pic looking up at the last ascent and then looking down from the same location.
If you zoom in, you can actually see a few people higher up on the hill
