Whoa Sean, that's some epic reading, amazing photos and of course glad you made it out alive.
After reading the full report, I have a foggy recollection of hearing you describe the incident on a podcast (The Sharp End)? I've followed your adventures for years, glad to know there will be more to come.

Shawn, thanks! I recall it being suggested that I do a "The Sharp End," podcast, but I did not end up pursuing it. Thankfully, it all seems long, long ago now just a year and a half out. Living a full life seems to make time pass slowly the past handful of years.Shawn wrote: ↑Tue Nov 17, 2020 11:40 pmWhoa Sean, that's some epic reading, amazing photos and of course glad you made it out alive.
