Finally! Pictures from my Hike up the Chief this summer

This is funny - this hike was actually the reason I bought a digital camera... I was frustrated that I went on an awesome hike, took half a roll of cool pictures, and then let the camera sit around for a month, waiting to finish the roll before taking it in for developing. So anyway, I just finally finished off the roll and got it developed - and here are the pictures!
That's Bob Dog and Scotty Dogma with me - Bob's the one hanging off the edge of the Chief...

Just incredible! what awesome pics! You must have totally felt on top of the world! To think that I grew up in the shadow of the chief (well, a few miles away anyway) and passed it almost weekly to visit relatives in Cheakamus. I was always in awe, craining my neck to see "the face", and wondering how on earth people ever could scale those cliffs. The views you have captured from the top are simply breathtaking; I got dizzy just looking at them! so now I finally get to see what it looks like from the top of the Chief. Thanks Cal!
