He makes no mention of flipping and I believe he has not.  He is over 
halfway thru a Triple Crown since November. I like the way he stays under

Has Trauma actually made it to Glacier Peak already as a NOBO no flip
thru-hiker?  Journal entries put him at Lake Morena on 4/22/06.  He
must be smokin'.
