Squaw Peak Attempt

As part of our "climb every mountain" plan Marilyn and I decided we were ready to climb Squaw Peak. We really had no basis to make to make this decision other than the fact it was a nice day and we had nothing else to do. The trail is well marked and worn. We made our way to the one quarter mile sign and pushed on. It was a steep climb. Marilyn was feeling exhausted before we made it to the half mile marker. I urged her on at a slower pace. At a bend in the trail a green post with no sign appeared. I thought it was the half mile marker which would have been about half way to the top. Marilyn decided it was time to go back. I found out later that the sign post didn't mark the half mile point but I'm sure we were close to it.At one time the post may have held a sign saying "If you're tired already, maybe you should consider turning around here". Or maybe it said "If you can read this sign, you're too close to the edge". Maybe it warned of possible crime by saying "Take a look at your car in the parking lot. It may be the last time you see it". Maybe the sign will be there when we come for another attempt. And we will be back.
