Mt Fuji hike

This weekend I climbed Mt. Fuji with the FY 2009 Chief Selectee's. It was a challange and by no means an easy task. The higher you go the less oxegen and you literally have to break every 4 or 5 steps. It is also easy to get delerious at these heights. The weather was horrible and this made it even more difficult but I plan to do it again next year. Hopefully the weather is better and I have gathered many lessons learned.
Climbing up!
This is at station 9 and you can see where the clouds are. It was cold and rainy. You can also see I am carrying a walking stick that I got stamped with a hot iron at each station.


The summit at 100 meters!!!

Dylan's Yankee's

Dylan played Tee Ball for the NY Yankees. He had fun and he couldn't have played for a better team!
Dylan hit a foul ball but as you can see he has excellent form! When he hits it it goes.
