Not a bad first ever summit

We arrived late at 10:30 am, since it was our very first ever peak to hike, we hesitated knowing it was a hard hike to do. We eventually decided to go ahead and do the hike. Sure enough, after several breaks in between, we made summit after 3 1/2 hours.  The view was well worth it, made my wife teary-eyed with just the fact that we made it. We had some snack and started to head down and make it back. Downhill was quicker, made it down before 4:30 pm. For a couple inexperience and unfit hikers, this was not a bad first ever summit.
