First Ascent

Note: Arnold Wexler, Andy Kauffman, George Bell, and Ginny Bell did not actually summit. The group was in the mountains for 38 days plagued by bad weather. These four we forced to leave because of personal time constraints (Kauffman about midway and the other 3 just a week before summiting), however all were involved in a month preprations, path-finding, and dead-ends.
