Kool...I remember the days when you could hardly go hiking in the Daks and not see "P. Fish..." in the register. Maybe Mountain Hardware will come out with a P. Fish signature Kilt Model.

On Thursday I climbed Marcy for the first time. There was a nice festive atmosphere up there with Peter Fish celebrating his 700th walk up there. Luckily, the wind was 0-5 mph, so I didn't need to wonder if men in kilts should stay below treeline.

About that men in skirts thing.... I don't think so

(Hey! Now I hit 700, too!)

Wear a skirt? For Pete's sake!

Here's still another story, with more interesting bits of info about Pete.

Wow, how many of us can say we hiked 230 days in a 365 day stretch!

I guess Pete was just goofing off those other 135 days...
