English: We were wanting to go on a hike during the day of September 15, 2007. Vesper was our choice, but unfortunaty we left late as usual so we decided to spend the night at the trailhead and brought my friends Mark and Sean. We had a camp fire that night and the weather did not seem to hold up very well vecasue the valley above was filled with mist. When we woke up, it was the came, mist everywere up the mountain, just as I was taking some photos, I heard some kind of music, trumpets and it was a very nice sounding thing, we wondered how could be music in the middle of the Cascade so loud, so I called it and to this day the Mountain Song. But turns out it was some guy hanging out at Vesper for a few weeks with his broken down van and his speakers playing loud, and he was fairly nice although I scared him when walking to find out thwat the noise was. We started off the hike and it was dark even though it was almost midday! There were blueberries along the sides of the trail, which some were good and some were not. Later my friend Mark wanted a Photo of him and a small glacier on the way, so I did so, but my other friend Sean who is a little imatture got in the way of his photo thinking it was funny. From here it pretty much went down hill, Mark threw blue berries at Sean thinking it would make him go away, and Sean thought they were rocks, so Sean starts getting angry and calling Mark names.... Oh no, I thought to myself. After a huge conflict with verbly fighting, Mark was angry and headed down, and my mom was cold so she decided that it was time to turn around, but my brother Michael who came did not want to leave and same as I, so we decided that we continue even without my mothers permission and said he would take all the blame. So we hiked up Sean me and my brother, and the mist just kept coming and going and it would pick up again. I decided it would make a nice shot so I used the cool effect to capture it, which is this one. For those who know Headlee Pass, it is steep and in ways considered dangerous, but our Mountain Madness compelled us to keep going. Just before getting to the pass, it was so steep, if you through a bolder, it would tumble down about a 1000 feet back on the trail below, and my friend Sean kept throwing them and we had to get him to stop, and once almost hit me in the head with a bolder about the size of my head and lucky for me I have good reflexes and dodged it, and made him have to appologize. After the switchbacking up the steep Mountain, and got to the pass, it was starting to rain. Unfortunatly Sean did not bring a jacket, so I gave him mine, and I had an emergancy pancho which only partly coved me and by this point I was very wet. Once we got up near the top, it was time to turn around because I was so cold, I could not move my hand and my friend could hardly move, we had to keeep him in motion, because he was starting to get in some of the first stages of hyperthemia. On the way down, which was tiring, he would almost fall asleep from being so tired and cold and it would have been bad to carry him down the pass, luckily he never did fall asleep and we mangaged to get him to keep going and we got down safly and had Pizza near home. So remember to always bring a Jacket when going to the Mountains and make sure your friends do too!
