It's been pretty hectic these past few weeks. My normal out-of-office activities have waned down significantly. Lots of stories to tell, but that has to wait a few more days. I just want to commemorate this day.
Ten years ago today. We were officially inducted to the UP Mountaineers in the cold waters of Dulangan River, during a particularly wet afternoon in Mt. Halcon. It was the culmination of months of training, learning, and climbing. It was also the start of 10 years of adventure with a lot of crazy people (and counting).

So to my batchmates, both active and desaparecido, a toast to that year that changed our lives forever! May we not run out of mountains or excuses to climb.
Mabuhay ang UP Mountaineers!
