    Easiest/Hardest 4000 Footer?

    like many posters before me, it all depends on context... in my case: easiest: either hale or tecumseh hardest: cannon. this is because it was done on little sleep, after bagging both north & south kinsman beforehand. i ran out of food and water, and it was raining buckets in 40 degree temps.

    Who Are These People???? (Rant on Illegal Camping in the Whites)
