Default RE: Snow Blindness

i have been involved in winter mountaineering for years... with climbs of Rainer, Denali (2) and most of the Colorado 14ers in the winter under my belt... luckily I have never experienced snow blindness, but I have witnessed it first hand...

the most graphic description given to me is take hot coals and broken glass and grind it in your eyes... for a couple days... and it is sort of like that!...


Glad it worked out OK!!
