A Successful Climb Doesn't Necessarily Need a Summit

Blog kitt decided around 12:57 on 30 July 2022 to publish this:

Well, that was an adventure. I did not summit. None of the team summitted. I learned a lot, and have a new highest point for me: 5000m (16404').

That said, this climb was a complete mismanagement of intake resources, coupled with significant equipment issues. Which begs the question, "Can a climb be awesome and awful, wondrous and a wreck?" Yes? Good, because this one was.
