I did it! I climbed Mt. Hood. Wow! Mt. Hood is actually the second most climbed alpine summit in the world, second to Mt. Fuji in Japan. It's summit at 11,240 feet was pretty breathtaking. It was freezing at the top, with the wind blowing frantically, but it was well worth it. With the sun rising, and the cool views, this experience is one that I will never forget. Now I can say that I really climbed a mountain.
