 ACK! That's my son's birthday weekend. I'll have guests in town.

Otherwise, I'd be in.

What's your idea on the ascension -- would we need jumars?

I LOVE this idea. Sorry I couldn't do that weekend!

(Can I talk you into a 30-hour race on Sept 24-25? Trying to put together a 4-person team for this one...)
