To the contrary, one's best is always "good enough", even if not good enough to meet the goal.Asher, Jarmo, Jerome...

Carla and I are so proud of Ayesha. We hope that she is able to recuperate quickly from this extraordinary adventure.But one should never give up trying. Ayesha has already started planning a return to the same mountain.

So relieved you are back to civilization!
Be well!
