I didn't take this picture. We ran into some old Japanese hikers at the top of the mountain and they took a photo of us. Luckily they gave us the website address as well, so here it is
I'm 5th from the left, right behind someone's head. You can see me giving the 'V' sign

This picture was taken moments before the worst enemy of all mountain hikers struck. No it wasn't frostbite or dysstenary but the awesome yeti or as its known in other parts the 'white death'.
Within seconds half the hiking party had been devoured as the rest ran in a futile attempt to save their lives. It didn't work, soon Blake was the only person left. The beast loomed in, blood dripping off its fangs as it stalked towards him without any qalms about a quick lunge like all the others. He was the last and he would take his time.
Blake edged himself further away feeling the ground beneath him start to crumble as he approached the edge. It was then the yeti stuck but fate interveined and he lost his grip like a mountain goat covered in grease. He fell 8000 feet onto a pile of jagged rocks. However Blake came from a time when people were tougher. He was jitterbugging that very night.
The moral of the story is. When hiking take a lot of randoms with you in case of a legendary animal attack. Also I miss the 50's.
This post is made of awesome and win
