Hi Steve, Son is 24. I turn 53 on August 5th. Son is an Army vet in great shape, (But not accustomed to these sorts of Altitudes)
I on the other hand have ankle surgery on April 4th with a 6-week recovery. I am used to the White Clouds in Idaho but my max elevation it approx 10,000.
I will be training hard by June 4th. Lots of good peaks around and planning on a Mt Borah (13,000) summit in Mide July.
